reinventors
Those who remake
Reinventors are people who reinvent something—reimagining or radically transforming an existing thing, system, or practice.
The term often appears in business and self-help contexts for those who reshape industries or their own careers: Silicon Valley loves to celebrate its reinventors.
Someone who reinvents themselves after a setback might be called a reinventor.
