About Us
We’re Select German Car Service, a highly rated independent repair shop focused exclusively on late-model Porsche, BMW, Audi, Mercedes, and other premium European vehicles.
Located on Miramar Road in the heart of San Diego’s luxury auto corridor, our 5-bay shop (including an alignment rack) is surrounded by high-end dealerships—but we deliver dealership-quality work without the red tape. We’ve built a reputation for quick-turnaround, high-quality repairs, and a no-drama, family-style work culture.
We’re looking for a Shop Foreman / Lead Diagnostic Technician to help us level up our operation and lead from the front.

Be the go-to diagnostic expert—handling complex drivability, electrical, and module issues
Provide technical leadership and mentoring to the tech team
Assist with hands-on repairs when needed to keep workflow moving
Maintain accuracy and efficiency in diagnostics and repair strategy
Collaborate closely with service advisors to keep jobs on track and customers informed
Who You Are
Minimum 10 years of professional experience in European automotive diagnostics and repair
Deep knowledge of Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, Audi, and other German makes
Confident in logical diagnostics and systematic troubleshooting
Comfortable teaching, leading, and supporting a tech team without micromanaging
Experienced with modern diagnostic equipment (Autel, Snap-On Zeus, Launch, etc.)
Programming/coding knowledge is a bonus, but not required
Team-oriented, professional, and easy to work with—we value attitude as much as skill
Requirements
At least 10 years of experience working on German/European vehicles
Clean and valid driver’s license
Strong diagnostic skillset and comfort using scan tools and service info systems
ASE certifications a plus (but not required)
What We Offer
Pay range: $40 – $50+ per hour (flat rate or salary structure, based on experience)
No weekends – We believe in work-life balance and quality time
Clean, organized, and well-equipped 5-bay facility
Access to all the tools and resources you need to succeed
Low-drama, high-respect environment—your experience and voice matter here
Opportunities to grow with the business

If you’re a seasoned diagnostic tech who’s ready to step into a leadership role—without the dealership politics—this might be your spot.
