Brooksville, FL 34604, USA (2379 Broad Street, Brooksville, FL 34604, USA)

Help protect one of Florida’s most vital resources — water — with a career at the Southwest Florida Water Management District (District).

The District is a government agency whose mission is to protect water resources, minimize flood risks, and ensure the public’s water needs are met. We serve a population of nearly 6 million people in west-central Florida as directed by state law.

Support the District’s Data Collection Bureau by managing the District’s scientific enterprise database, associated data processing applications (e.g., Environmental Data Portal (EDP), a user interface), and stored hydrologic data to ensure accuracy, completeness, and availability of valuable water resource data to internal and external customers.

The Hydrologic Data Systems Analyst will ensure hydrologic data reports and related graphics are produced in a timely manner by ensuring data flows between databases and the R scripts used to generate the reports. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to ensure successful operation of data management upload and download processes and will develop and maintain ad‑hoc and automated data transfers across database systems through coordination with software vendors, Information Technology Bureau staff, and Hydrologic Data office and field staff.

The role includes assessing data management system performance, implementing modifications and enhancements, and conducting quality control to identify and resolve data issues. This opportunity offers creative process‑improvement work, flexibility, and true work‑life balance.

The District supports employees who prefer a flexible schedule or hybrid work schedule so they can enjoy their time outside of the District. This role is considered hybrid, which means the employee will be required to come on‑site for a portion of their time and may have the option to work remotely the remainder of the time (must live in Florida).
