Water infrastructure and civil engineering for Northeast municipalities
Tighe & Bond is a 110-year-old engineering and environmental consulting firm serving public and private clients across the Northeast, with a heavy concentration in water, wastewater, and transportation infrastructure. The tech stack is dominated by domain-specific CAD and simulation tools (Revit, AutoCAD, Civil 3D, ETABS, HydroCAD, STAAD) — a pattern typical of design-led consulting rather than software-driven operations. Active hiring remains engineering-focused with senior and mid-level roles leading the load, though velocity is decelerating.
Tighe & Bond provides civil engineering, environmental science, planning, and design services to municipalities and organizations across the Northeast. Core competencies span water and wastewater systems, transportation infrastructure, structural and geotechnical design, and environmental compliance. The firm's project portfolio centers on dam rehabilitation, sewer system evaluation, roadway design (including MassDOT work), conveyance system upgrades, pump station and treatment plant design, and integrated water resource management. The company operates as a private partnership with 501–1,000 employees, headquartered in Westfield, Massachusetts.
Primary tools include Revit, AutoCAD, Civil 3D, ETABS, STAAD, SAP2000, HydroCAD, and MicroStation. Structural and mechanical work relies on ETABS and STAAD for analysis; water infrastructure modeling uses HydroCAD.
Focus areas include dam rehabilitation, sewer system evaluation, wastewater management plans, roadway design for municipalities and MassDOT, bridge and geotechnical design, pump stations, and treatment plants.
