Remote Visual Basic Developer Jobs in Mays Landing, NJ

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. 

About the Role 

RPH is seeking a 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 offers remote flexibility, with regular onsite presence at RPH's Engineering Hub in Hammonton, New Jersey. Time onsite is essential to partner with engineers, gain hands on product knowledge, observe installation practices, and develop best in class technical documentation. Candidates located in or near southern New Jersey are strongly preferred.

A portfolio is required with your resume. It does not need to be published or polished work. Installation instructions you drafted, a spec you wrote, an SOP, a marked up drawing, or a training document you built for your crew all count.

About You 

You are a detail-oriented technical communicator who understands the construction industry and can turn complex engineering and product information into clear, usable documentation. You are comfortable working directly with engineers, asking questions, reviewing drawings, interacting with physical products, and translating technical information into strong written, visual, and instructional content. You care about getting it right and you keep your work organized. You may have come to technical writing from the field, from an engineering or estimating desk, or from a product team. That path is welcome here.

• Working knowledge of construction terminology, drawings, assemblies, and documentation.
