Senior Technical Writer

Roof Penetration Housing (RPH) is a dynamic, rapidly expanding leader in the commercial building products industry, trusted by architects, engineers, contractors, and building owners on a wide range of critical projects, from hospitals and data centers to K-12 schools. Our innovative, engineered solutions prevent roof and wall leaks and ensure storm shelters and safe rooms meet code requirements and protect occupants during severe weather events.

We nearly doubled revenue in 2025, and we're still accelerating. We're experiencing rapid expansion across both our New Jersey and Texas locations, and we're growing our powerhouse team as we continue setting new benchmarks for performance, safety, and success in commercial construction.

But what we're most proud of isn't the growth, it's how we grow: deliberately, together, and without cutting corners. If that sounds like your kind of place, we'd like to meet you.

RPH is seeking an experienced Senior Technical Writer to develop accurate, clear, and field-ready technical documentation for our commercial building product lines. This position requires more than strong writing skills. The Technical Writer must be able to understand construction products, drawings, assemblies, installation methods, and technical information and translate them into documentation that is both written and highly visual.

The role will produce installation manuals, technical data sheets, CSI specifications, submittals, picture cards, quick-reference guides, and other materials used by architects, engineers, contractors, and installers. The ideal candidate will also help RPH expand technical content into video and other visual training formats where appropriate.

This position reports to the Director of Marketing and can be based remotely in NJ, MD, PA, NY, CT; however, the role requires regular onsite presence at RPH's Engineering Hub in Hammonton, New Jersey as business needs dictate. Travel is essential to effectively partner with engineers, gain hands‑on product knowledge, observe installation practices, and develop best‑in‑class technical documentation. While remote candidates will be considered, applicants located in or near our New Jersey location are preferred.

A portfolio is required with resume submission.
