Diesel Automotive Technician: Family-Owned Shop (No Weekends / up to $120K) Jobs in Kaufman, TX at Taylor Automotive & Tire Kaufman

Great technicians do more than fix vehicles. They solve difficult problems, support the people around them, and help the entire shop perform at a higher level.

At Taylor Automotive & Tire, we’re looking for an experienced Diesel Automotive Technician / Shop Foreman who is ready to take the lead. This is an opportunity to join an established, family-owned shop where your experience will be respected, your ideas will be heard, and you’ll have the support and steady workload you need to succeed.

You won’t be expected to carry the load alone. We have a strong team, proven systems, loyal customers, and a structured workflow already in place. You can step into a leadership role, do quality work, mentor other technicians, and still enjoy your evenings and weekends.

Work-Life Balance Matters

We believe great technicians need time to recharge and be present for their families. That’s why we offer a five-day workweek with no nights and no weekends.

We want you to have a successful career without missing every family event, appointment, or weekend.

You’ll Stay Busy

Taylor Automotive & Tire is a well-established, thriving shop with loyal customers and active marketing that keeps work coming through the doors.

We provide the structure and support you need to stay productive and earn at your full potential—without the chaos found in poorly managed shops.

  • Provide technical guidance and support to junior technicians
  • Help the team troubleshoot difficult diagnostic and repair concerns
  • Collaborate with technicians, service advisors, and management to keep work moving efficiently
