A tire technician provides tire repair service in an automotive repair facility. As a tire technician, your duties include dismounting the wheel, changing the tire, and mounting it back on the car. You also make repairs to tires if the damages are small. You must be able to operate a variety of machinery, like the car lift, and have proficient power tool skills. Depending on the size of the shop, you may also be responsible for providing customer service. However, most shops separate service and automotive technology positions.
