Tower engineering and construction services across 200,000+ telecom sites globally
Tower Engineering Professionals operates a field-heavy engineering firm managing infrastructure work for cellular and fiber networks across North America and select international markets. The hiring mix—70% engineering and construction roles against sparse central functions—reflects their project-delivery model. Pain points around labor forecasting, budget adherence, and project efficiency suggest operational complexity at scale; their stack (AutoCAD, Civil 3D, GIS, Trimble) is standard for field engineering but gaps in project management or labor-planning tools hint at manual coordination overhead.
Notable leadership hires: Project Lead, Survey Crew Chief
