Deployed Across America.
Founded in Annapolis, Maryland, Raffe was established to answer a singular gap in the staffing industry: no agency was purpose-built for the intense talent demands of mission-critical infrastructure — data centers, utility-scale construction, and industrial engineering projects at national scale.
We don't generalize. We specialize. Our team sources, vets, and places Mechanical Engineers, Electrical Engineers, Project Managers, EITs, MEP Coordinators, and skilled tradesmen who thrive in high-stakes environments where timelines are unforgiving and execution is everything.
Backed by decades of combined industry leadership in MEP engineering, construction management, and executive talent acquisition.

Championing Women
in Engineering
Women remain significantly underrepresented in mechanical and electrical engineering, construction management, and the skilled trades. At Raffe, we believe the strongest project teams are also the most diverse ones — and we actively work to make that a reality.
We proactively recruit, represent, and advocate for women engineers, EITs, project managers, and tradeswomen across every discipline we serve. Our clients are encouraged to consider diverse candidate slates, and we hold ourselves accountable to building a pipeline that reflects the full spectrum of engineering talent in this country.
We actively recruit women Engineers-in-Training and connect them with mentorship-forward employers who invest in licensure support and career development.
We partner with clients who demonstrate a genuine commitment to inclusion — and we use our platform to highlight opportunities at firms where women thrive and lead.
Every candidate we represent — regardless of gender — benefits from the same discretion, respect, and advocacy. We never disclose personal information without consent.
