Civil and infrastructure engineering firm specializing in airport and transportation design
Hoyle Tanner is a 50-person civil engineering practice founded in 1973, anchored in AutoCAD, Civil 3D, and GIS workflows typical of traditional design shops. The hiring profile skews heavily senior (42 of 66 open roles are senior-level), suggesting an established client base and project complexity that demands experienced staff rather than growth-stage scaling. Active projects cluster around airport master planning, bridge hydraulics, and airfield pavement—capital infrastructure work that sits at the intersection of technical depth and regulatory compliance.
Hoyle Tanner delivers integrated engineering and planning services for civil infrastructure, with demonstrated expertise in airport design, transportation, structural, environmental, and geospatial work. The firm operates from Manchester, New Hampshire, and serves public and private clients across the Northeast and Florida on projects ranging from airport master plans to bridge scour evaluation and municipal wastewater systems. A national member of the US Green Building Council, the practice emphasizes low-impact development and LEED-accredited design. The technology stack reflects traditional engineering practice: AutoCAD, Civil 3D, Revit, HydroCAD, HEC-RAS, and ArcGIS for modeling; Deltek for project financials; Bluebeam for mark-up collaboration. Current operational challenges include resource constraints on technically demanding projects, accounts receivable pressure, and pursuit of new work.
Autodesk Civil 3D, AutoCAD, Revit, HydroCAD, HEC-RAS, and ArcGIS form the core design stack. Bluebeam handles plan review and markup; Deltek manages project accounting. GPS and geospatial tools support survey and asset management workflows.
