We Listen. We Design. We Deliver.
At RPA Engineering, we pride ourselves on being a firm founded on integrity and leadership. Our story began in 1989 with an exciting vision and a small team of dedicated engineers, led by our first engineer, Marian K. Over the past 30 years, we have grown to become a team of over 80 professionals across six offices, strategically located along the eastern corridor of the United States.

Thirdly, Quality - We strive to deliver the highest quality work, and it is what we do. Fourthly, Fun - Life is too short not to enjoy every moment.

We achieve this by having the right skills, but most importantly, by finding solutions that are innovative and people-oriented. This is what sets us apart from other engineering firms.
