RWDI is a global climate and performance engineering consulting firm that helps its clients redefine what's possible by overcoming design and operational challenges, while minimizing environmental, user, and resource impact. With deep technical expertise across a broad range of services, we drive success on ambitious building, industry, and infrastructure projects.
We are a values-based organization, which means everything we do relates back to our three core values: innovation, integrity, and integration. So, when we look for new people to join our team, alignment to these values is a vital piece of our people puzzle. Here's what this looks like:
         You push the boundaries of what's possible.
         People know they can rely on you to follow through on your commitments.
         You believe that when a group of people come together, they can achieve more than any one person could alone.

If this sounds like you and you're ready to join an award-winning organization and work alongside renown technical and exceptionally innovative colleagues, RWDI is the place for you.

  • Design, implement and scale blended learning solutions: instructor-led, virtual instructor-led, onthejob learning, mentorship, communities of practice, microlearning, and elearning platforms.
  • Build and manage signature programs in the areas of onboarding, mentorship and leadership development.
  • Partner closely with engineering leaders, Human Resources, and hiring to embed learning into talent processes (performance, succession).
  • Establish and manage measurement frameworks and KPIs (skill adoption, learning ROI, employee engagement/retention).
  • Own vendor selection and relationships (content platforms, external trainers) and manage L&D budget.
  • Lead a small global team that includes instructional design and training coordination.
  • Pilot innovative approaches (learning analytics, adaptive learning, AI-enabled tutoring) and scale successful experiments.
  • Communicate regularly to senior leadership on program progress, risks, and impact.

  • 8+ years L&D / Talent Development experience with increasing ownership; 3+ years leading global programs or teams, preferably within engineering or complex technical environments.
  • Demonstrated track record designing scalable, measurable learning programs and embedding them into talent processes.
  • Subject matter expertise in Change management methodologies.
  • Experience with learning technologies (LMS/LXP, authoring tools, virtual classroom platforms) and learning measurement frameworks.
  • Experience with a variety of different coaching tools and methodologies. Specific experience with Clifton Strengths is an asset.
  • BA/BS in Education, Organizational Development, or related field; advanced degree or relevant certification (CPLP, SHRM, L&D certifications) a plus.

  • An opportunity to redefine possible.
  • Salary range: $90,000.00 - $120,000.00
