YOUCANIC
makes repair videos that teach everyday drivers how to take care of their own cars: brakes, spark plugs, belts, sensors, filters, starters, fluids, and check engine diagnosis. Our videos have been watched more than 83 million times by people who found us stuck in a driveway at 9pm with a socket in their hand. The mechanic in front of the camera is the reason it works. That could be you. How your day works You show up to our indoor, climate controlled studio garage. The car is already in the bay. Camera, lights, and audio are set up and running. You get a clear list of repairs for that vehicle. You do the work and talk through it like you're explaining it to a friend who has never held a wrench. That's it. We handle all the filming, editing, and uploading. Why techs want this job Paid for every hour. Hourly pay, every hour you're here. A job that takes four hours pays four hours. No book time, no flag time. Almost no customers. The vast majority of your work is on our own cars for our videos. No lobby, no phone calls, no one standing in the doorway asking if it's done yet. No comebacks. Our cars aren't going back to anyone, and nothing ever comes out of your paycheck. No upselling, no quotas. No service writer selling work over your head. The list is the list. Work you can actually be proud of. No 20 hour teardowns flagged at 6. Everything on the list is work a DIYer could do at home with a normal toolbox: oil changes, brakes, fluid services, filters, sensors, starters, diagnostics. No transmission rebuilds, no engine out jobs. Slow down and do it right. Here, taking your time to explain is the whole point. You'll still have a turnaround deadline for each vehicle, but nobody is racing a book number. Your work lasts. A shop repair gets driven away and forgotten by Friday. A brake job you film here keeps teaching people for years. What you need 5+ years of hands on automotive repair experience. Your own full set of hand and power tools. You bring your box, same as any shop. If you don't own your tools, this isn't the right fit. The ability to explain what you're doing in plain language while you do it. Reliable daily transportation to Parkville, MD. This is fully on site, not remote. You don't need to be a "personality." You don't need to be funny, polished, or good on camera on day one. If you can explain a brake job to your neighbor, you can do this. Our best videos are just a good mechanic talking normally. What we provide The garage, bay, and lift. Every camera, light, and microphone. The vehicles. Every part for every job. Specialty tools when a repair calls for one. A clear repair list for each assignment. You never touch a laptop, editing software, or upload anything. When you apply, you'll get a few follow up questions. Start every answer with a + sign. It tells us you actually read this far.
