Jaunt converts classic and commercial vehicles to fully electric drivetrains. We've spent the last seven years building some of the most respected electric classic cars in the world from our workshop in Melbourne.

From 21 September 2026 we're in Clayton, south-east Melbourne.


About the workshop

Our workshop runs around seven concurrent builds at any given time. Land Rover Series, Defenders, Classic Minis, Porsches, Kombis, commercial vehicles, and a few builds you won't have seen anywhere else.

We need someone on the bench who can work across those builds, from the chassis up to the final test drive.


About the work

Most of what we build is one of our standard models, on an EV platform we've been developing for years. The designs are documented, the main wiring harnesses are manufactured, and the same systems go into build after build.

Standard doesn't mean finished. The platform is in continual development, every vehicle that comes through the door is different, and some of the documentation gets written as the build happens. There's genuine problem-solving in every build.

If that sounds like a drawback, this role probably isn't for you. If it sounds like the reason to come in on Monday, read on.

We're continually adding structure to how the workshop runs, and safety-critical work on high-voltage systems is documented to a standard that doesn't slip. The creative core of the work stays intact.


Mechanical and electrical

There's a lot of working with wires in this job. The work splits three ways: assembling EV systems like battery packs to our documented designs, installing those systems into the vehicle, and assembling the vehicle itself. The main wiring harnesses are manufactured, and each build adds unique elements and adjustments around them.

If auto electrical isn't your background, that's ok. If you're not a full-on mechanic, that's ok too. We can be flexible with how the work is split, as long as you're up for both sides.
