An Innovative Spirit
Collaboration is at the root of who we are and what we do. We believe that by working together, we can think outside the boundaries of what’s possible. We embrace the idea that every individual who works with us, and for us, brings an invaluable perspective and potential to change the world.

Garrett McKeown Wessler
Innovation AdvisorThis may be a common story at RTI, but I wanted to be able to help shape something that would positively impact someone else’s life. So, when I finished my PhD, I didn’t look for post-docs and jump on the track towards a professorship but instead looked for opportunities that would let me have greater impact. This search led me to RTI and the Innovation Advisors.

EconomistOne thing I've enjoyed about my time with RTI is that I am constantly learning. I've been with RTI just over two years now and I'm still learning new things and being encouraged to grow in my skills and abilities.
What I think separates RTI from other companies in our field is the balance RTI offers. I get to do work that I care about, find value in, and genuinely helps others while also being supported and encouraged to maintain a healthy work-life balance.
