Professional Engineer Hybrid

Work for Our Water Resources.

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 6million people in west-central Florida as directed by state law.

This is a great opportunity to restore priority water bodies for future generations. The Southwest Florida Water Management District (District), a leader in protecting Florida's water resources, is seeking an Engineer in support of the Surface Water Improvement and Management (SWIM) Program. This position will work on a wide variety of projects related to natural systems restoration and water quality improvements in a planned effort to restore our most valuable natural resources.

The successful candidate will perform project management and technical duties including contract management, negotiations, construction administration, hydraulic/hydrologic model review, stormwater retrofit design, plans and specifications review, working with stakeholders, project tracking, preparing budgets, and cost tracking.

The District supports employees who prefer a flexible schedule or a remote work schedule so that they can enjoy their time outside of the District through work‑life balance. This role is considered hybrid, which means the employee will be required to come on‑site and work a portion of their time remotely (must live in Florida). Come build a career that is challenging, fulfilling, and helps support the District’s mission to protect Florida’s water resources.
