The team is made up of a highly engaged group of seasoned professionals and emerging leaders. We are creators who believe that what we build drives the growth of our cities and that to fulfill our mission, we must constantly challenge the old way of doing things. Headquartered in New Orleans, Louisiana, we thrive on building communities, building teams, building leaders, and growing the business throughout the Southeast region with additional offices in Mississippi, Tennessee, and Alabama.</p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">About the Role</span></span> </p>\n<p>We’re looking for a <span style=\"font-weight: bold\">Structural Systems Architect</span> that will be the system owner and technical authority responsible for how structural systems are designed, integrated, and ultimately built across RNGD projects. This role operates within RNGD’s design-build environment, leading structural decision-making from early concept through fabrication and field execution. Unlike traditional engineering roles, this position emphasizes ownership, constructability, and real-world performance—ensuring structural systems are not only technically sound, but optimized for manufacturing, logistics, and installation.
