Light Duty Diesel Technician

Location: Charlotte, NC

About Blue Ridge Talent

Blue Ridge Talent is a Charlotte-based recruiting and talent advisory firm.

About Our Client

We are partnering with one of our local clients to recruit a Light Duty Diesel Technician for their growing automotive operation. Our client is an established, privately owned, automotive dealership in Charlotte with a large and diverse inventory of pre-owned vehicles, including a significant number of diesel and heavy-duty trucks. They are looking for a dependable technician who brings strong mechanical ability, attention to detail, and an interest in continuing to develop their skills.

Position Overview

The Light Duty Diesel Technician will serve as an A-level technician responsible for inspecting, diagnosing, maintaining, and repairing diesel-powered trucks and other vehicles within the dealership’s inventory.

This position is a strong opportunity for an experienced technician with advanced diagnostic and troubleshooting skills who is comfortable working across a wide variety of domestic and import makes and models.

The ideal candidate enjoys hands-on automotive work, approaches problems methodically, and takes pride in completing repairs correctly and efficiently.

Key Responsibilities

• Inspect and diagnose mechanical and drivability concerns on light-duty diesel trucks and other vehicles.

• Perform preventative maintenance and routine mechanical repairs.

• Diagnose and repair diesel engine and related vehicle systems.

• Troubleshoot basic electrical and electronic issues.

• Perform vehicle inspections and identify needed repairs or maintenance.

• Support the reconditioning and preparation of vehicles for sale.

• Work on diesel pickup platforms including Ford Power Stroke, GM Duramax, and Ram/Cummins vehicles.

• Install, diagnose, repair, or service aftermarket components and modified vehicles, including tuned platforms, superchargers, lift kits, lighting, and other performance upgrades.

• Use diagnostic equipment, hand tools, power tools, lifts, and other shop equipment safely and effectively.

• Communicate vehicle conditions, repair needs, and completed work clearly with other members of the team.

• Maintain an organized, professional, and safe work environment.

• Continue developing technical knowledge of diesel systems and automotive repair.

Desired Qualifications

• Approximately 1–5 years of relevant automotive or diesel mechanical experience.

• Hands-on experience maintaining or repairing light-duty trucks or automobiles.

• General understanding of diesel engine operation and related mechanical systems.

• Strong mechanical aptitude and troubleshooting skills.

• Ability to safely operate common automotive tools and shop equipment.

• Ability to work independently while also contributing as part of a team.

• Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality workmanship.

• Dependable and comfortable working in a fast-paced automotive environment.

• Valid driver’s license.

Strongly Preferred

• Experience working with Ford Power Stroke, GM Duramax, and/or Ram/Cummins diesel platforms.

• Previous experience in a dealership, independent repair facility, fleet operation, or automotive shop.

• Experience with diesel diagnostics.

• Experience with diesel aftermarket components and modified vehicles, including tuning, superchargers, lift kits, lighting, and performance upgrades.

• Automotive or diesel technical training or certifications.

A Note for Diesel Enthusiasts

Professional shop experience is preferred, but we also recognize that some talented technicians develop significant skills outside of a traditional automotive workplace.

If you have meaningful hands-on experience working on diesel trucks as a hobbyist — particularly within the diesel aftermarket — we encourage you to apply. Personal experience diagnosing, repairing, maintaining, or modifying diesel trucks may be considered alongside professional experience.

If you’re unsure whether you meet every qualification but are highly interested in this type of work, please still apply. We are interested in engaging with candidates who have a very high level of interest in diesel vehicles and the desire to continue developing their skills professionally.

What’s in It for You

• Competitive & Negotiable pay based on expertise and experience.

• Flexible compensation structure—open to either flat-rate or hourly pay.

• Health insurance.

• Weekly pay.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
