Meet Ryan McDonald, PE
Ryan McDonald is a licensed Professional Engineer (PE #028725) and Georgia residential contractor (#RBCO006697) who personally runs every RYMAC build. He's a Navy veteran with an engineering background — and the name, the face, and the accountability behind every home.
The Engineer Difference
A Professional Engineer's license isn't a marketing badge — it's a regulated credential that holds Ryan to a standard of care beyond what most builders carry. For you, it means the person reviewing your drawings reads them like an engineer: foundations, framing, drainage, and load paths get scrutinized before the slab is poured. Problems get caught on paper, when they're cheap to fix, instead of in the field, when they're not.
Ryan came to homebuilding through engineering and Navy service — two backgrounds that reward discipline, follow-through, and getting the details right the first time. Years in the field taught him how a build actually goes together: the sequence, the trades, and where jobs tend to go sideways. He's seen it done right and done wrong, and he runs RYMAC accordingly.
He built RYMAC as an owner-operated company on purpose. You don't get passed to a project manager or lost in a volume builder's pipeline. The engineer who reviews your plans is the same person managing your subs, walking your site, and answering your calls. That's how he keeps quality and communication where they belong — in his own hands.
