Founded in 1976, Metric Motors has built their business on the referrals of their customers. Being voted the Best Auto Repair Shop in Loveland for the last 10 years in a row confirms that. Originally the only import shop in Loveland, Metric Motors soon began taking care of domestic cars at our customer’s request. In 2016, Metric Motors grew by purchasing a local tire shop, Loveland Tire and Service, so that we could better meet the needs of our customers. We’re excited about the next chapter and are planning on positioning Metric Motors for EV service soon. We have an ever-growing fleet of 10 free loaner cars for customers that we offer for any service. This builds great customer loyalty, helps us to sell more work when a customer brings their car in, and really helps us to reduce the pressure of customer’s completion expectations. Metric Motors has 12 bays, with 6 2-post lifts, 1 in-ground, 3 Mid-rise, and a Hunter HawkEye alignment rack. We try to keep our shop tools up to date and have several scan and scope tools. We operate best with 5 technicians and 3 service advisors. Our shop hours are 8:00 to 5:30 Monday through Friday. No weekends! An hour for lunch daily. Periodic shop meetings on Wednesday mornings before opening. We pay lube/tire and apprentice techs hourly. A through C techs are paid on a tiered flat-rate with a 28 hour guarantee. If you’d like to be a valued member of a great team with an eye towards the future, Check out Metric Motors and see if we’re right for each other.
Feel free to contact us on the form below if you have any questions. Even if you don't see an open position above, we're always looking to hear from good people.

The interview may last anywhere from 30-60 minutes and helps us to get to know the candidate while allowing them to find out more about our shop. We hope to learn about the candidate's work experience, background, and skills.
We perform a background check and driver's license check.
Generally we do not, but there may be a short skill assessment quiz for A/B level technicians.
As soon as possible - normally within 1 week, and possibly 2 weeks at the most.

Side work may be approved by management on a case-by-case basis, as it is not a conflict of interest or hindrance to business.
We are proud to have a very clean, orderly shop with a great team environment!
Yes, we encourage training and skill building! Any industry-related training classes or clinics are encouraged, and the shop will help cover costs.
We love seeing techs grow their career with us, and will support them along the way. We are always looking for our techs to gain more training & certification - not only to increase their skills, but also to increase their pay!
Performance reviews consist of meeting with a team member individually, discussing any skills they need to build, along with how they are progressing with training and growth. Our management enjoys hearing areas techs want to build their skills in or learn more about.
There is no formal safety training, but we will provide it as needed on an individual basis or with all staff.
Our more experienced technicians are encouraged to work with and guide younger technicians. We have a great team that helps each other out.
We enjoy giving back to the local community however we can! Some examples include our partnership with a nonprofit, Project Self Sufficiency, which we have donated to. We also partner with a local church, participating in their automotive repair program.
We strive to work with high schools and tech schools however we can! An example of this is that our management services on the advisory council of a local tech school.
We hope to be expanding more into the Electric Vehicle market, growing our shop, and hiring great new team members.
Pay is flat-rate, and may be higher depending on experience, certifications/training, and efficiency. We have a hybrid pay system. If a technician flags less than 30 hours per week, they are transitioned to hourly pay which helps guarantee compensation. If a technician flags over 30 hours, pay increases 5% every 5 hours (up to 50 hours/week).
