At RNGD, career growth does not wait until graduation.
Project Engineers Isaiah Margan and Makade Penton are balancing full-time roles in the field with full-time college course loads, taking on long days, late nights, and real project responsibility before graduation.
With support from their teams and the discipline to keep showing up, Isaiah and Makade are learning the work, earning trust, and building real careers before they ever walk across the graduation stage.
Read more about their paths, their grind, and what it takes to do both. Link in our bio.

Congratulations to William Cotten, Vice President of Innovation at RNGD, on being named a 2026 @zweiggroup Rising Star 🌟
Will joined RNGD in 2018 as a Commercial Operations Intern and has grown into one of the sharpest innovation minds in the AEC industry — leading our technology strategy, advancing construction analytics, scaling prefabrication capabilities, and constantly pushing what's possible in how we build.
What makes Will stand out isn't just what he builds — it's how he thinks. His guiding ethos is "actions, not words," and that shows up every day in the way he leads, the problems he solves, and the culture he helps shape at RNGD.
This recognition from Zweig Group reflects what we already know: Will is one of the best in the business, and the future of this industry is in very good hands.
We're proud of you, Will. Keep building. 🔴⚫

Every year, we pause to pour back into the thing that matters most — our people. And there's no better week to do it. In celebration of Construction Safety Week, we hosted our annual S.A.F.E. Day (Safety Always For Everyone) — a tradition that keeps growing right alongside our team.
From fall protection to confined space training, our people showed up ready to learn, and we're grateful for the incredible partners who helped lead the way.
Here's to another year of going home safe. 💛

We’re not looking for someone to fill a seat. We’re looking for an engineer who wants to own something.
At RNGD, our Structural Engineers don’t hand off drawings and walk away. You own the system—from concept through field execution—working alongside teams that move fast and build things that last.
What sets this role apart:
- Direct ownership of structural systems
- Real-time connection to field operations
- Work shaped by the Renegade Delivery Method — not legacy process
- Opportunity to grow across RNGD’s expanding portfolio in LA, MS, TN & AL
If you’re a structural engineer who wants more than a desk, this is where you build.
