Wayfarer Vans is looking for a full-time Camper Van Technician to help us build simple, high-quality camper vans for customers who are ready to get outside and explore.
This is a hands-on role that combines component assembly, vehicle installation, problem-solving, and quality control. You’ll split your time between our production and installation shops—first building the components that go into our vans, then installing those components according to each customer’s order.
In the production shop, you’ll use tools such as nail guns, sanders, routers, saws, and drills to assemble pre-designed components with care and precision. In the installation shop, you’ll use hand and power tools to install those components in the correct sequence. Some installations may also include light electrical work and basic vehicle modifications, such as installing vent fans and windows or wiring low-voltage equipment.
We’re looking for someone who takes pride in doing things well, enjoys solving problems, works safely, and wants to be part of a collaborative team.
