Build Your Career at Torque Automotive in Madison, WI
A Small Shop With a Different Way of Doing Things
Torque Automotive was built by two people who spent years working in the auto repair industry before deciding they wanted to do things differently, for customers and for the people on the team. That same philosophy carries over to how the shop treats its employees. This is a small, relaxed shop where your input actually matters, your schedule isn't an afterthought, and you're treated like a person instead of a number on a labor board.
If you're looking for a place where you can do good work, keep learning, and still have a life outside the shop, Torque Automotive might be the right fit.
What Makes Working Here Different
- A Small, Tight-Knit Team: With just a few people on staff, you're not getting lost in the shuffle. Everyone's voice counts, and decisions get made by people who actually know your name.
- Flexible Communication: Whether you prefer talking things through in person or hashing it out over text, the shop adapts to how you work best.
- Employee Input Strongly Encouraged: Got an idea for how to do something better? You'll actually get heard here, not brushed off.
- A Real Work/Life Balance: The shop closes at noon on Fridays and stays closed all weekend, so you get your evenings and weekends back to spend however you want.
- Otto, the Shop Dog: Otto's on site to greet everyone who walks through the door, customers and team members alike.
Benefits and Support for Your Growth
- PTO: Take time off when you need it, no guilt trips required.
- Paid Training: The shop invests directly in your skills, not just your output.
- ASE Certification Support: Build toward credentials that make you more valuable as a technician, not just on paper.
- Real Career Growth: Vehicles get more complex every year, and the technicians who keep learning are the ones who build careers instead of just punching a clock.
Learning From Real Experience
- Direct Mentorship: Learn from a technician with 25 years of hands-on experience, the kind of habits and troubleshooting instincts you can't get out of a textbook.
- Hands-On Daily: Whether you're early in your career or sharpening skills you already have, that experience is on the shop floor every day, not locked behind a classroom.
The Kind of Work Environment You Can Expect
- Honesty and Respect: No scare tactics, no pressure to upsell customers on things they don't need.
- A Calm Shop Floor: No chaotic, high-stress environment, just people focused on doing the work right the first time.
- Mutual Respect: Customers and coworkers alike get treated the way you'd want to be treated yourself.
- Full-Service Variety: General repair and maintenance, brakes, steering and suspension, diagnostics, electrical system repair, exhaust work, transmission service, and oil changes with digital vehicle inspections, so the work stays varied instead of repeating the same narrow task day after day.
What We're Looking For
Torque Automotive looks for people who care about doing quality work and treating customers well, whether that's in the bay or at the front counter. Technical experience is valuable, but so is a good attitude, a willingness to learn, and the kind of honesty that matches the shop's overall approach. If that sounds like you, the team wants to hear from you.
