We like to say that when you work at Rad Air, you don’t just find a job—you find a career. That’s true, but it’s much more than that. Our company culture is centered on valuing our employees and fostering a strong team. We work together to solve tough automotive repair challenges for our clients and we celebrate our wins. We have fun together at work and outside of work, enjoying local racing and motorsports. And we share a passion for cars that you can see in the care and quality of our work. If you want more than just a job, apply to work at Rad Air. Come be part of something special.
We believe great shops are built by great people, and we make sure work is more than just turning wrenches and writing repair estimates.
At Rad Air, our teams regularly get together for:
We’ve built an environment where technicians enjoy supporting and learning from each other, and have opportunities to connect outside the shop both personally and professionally.
And when the work week ends, it actually ends:
No weekends. Ever.
That means more time with family, friends, hobbies, and life outside the bays.
Our organization was founded by automotive technicians looking to find a better way to do business. As such, we’ve created a shop environment designed to let our team members focus on quality work without the stress and frustration common in most dealerships and nationwide repair chains.
Just honest repair work, strong client relationships, and a team-focused environment that values quality over shortcuts. If you’re looking for a shop where your skills are respected and your career can grow, Rad Air is built for you.
We don’t just hire technicians — we build careers.
Whether you’re early in your career or already highly experienced, we’re committed to helping you grow professionally and financially.
We want automotive professionals who are hungry to improve, and we’re willing to invest in the people who invest in themselves.
Unlike other auto shops in the industry, we do not require technicians, mechanics, assistant managers, or support staff to meet sales quotas, and we don’t have any commissions or SPIFF programs—just honest pay for honest work. We find this eliminates workplace competition, fosters teamwork, and prevents our staff from selling services the client does not need. Rad Air crews are busy, happy, and great at what they do—and that’s what matters.
If you want to retain good people—and keep your team performing at the highest level—you have to invest in your people. That’s why we provide competitive hourly wages and salaries, full benefits and retirement plans, growth and advancement opportunities, and so much more.
As a family-owned and locally-operated business, Rad Air puts you first. We offer flexible work schedules to fit your needs—that means no evenings, Sundays, or holidays. We frequently host company and store-wide team-building events like ATV riding excursions, trips to Put-in-Bay and Cedar Point, and Soap Box Derby Racing outings. We are also committed to the local community, providing opportunities for employees to work with youth and students as mentor apprentices and interns, as well as philanthropic opportunities to support and work within the community.
All of our Rad Air locations in Greater Cleveland and Akron are locally owned and operated. There are additional franchise ownership opportunities at Rad Air. If you are interested in starting a franchise, please reach out to our team for a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you!
Rad Air is happy to offer paid and unpaid apprenticeships, internships, and shadowing opportunities for young students. This is a fantastic way to get real on-the-job experience and determine whether you are interested in a future career in automotive repair. You may even join us one day as a professional mechanic or technician!
