A Tire Technician in the automotive industry is responsible for installing, repairing, balancing, and rotating tires for passenger and commercial vehicles. They inspect tires for wear and ensure that tires are fitted and inflated correctly. They use specialized machines to dismount and mount tires, perform flat repairs, balance wheels, and rotate tires. Tire Technicians also maintain the tire stock inventory and uphold the highest level of cleanliness and organization in the service area.
