Plumbing Senior Plumbing Engineer​/Designer Tampa, FL

Behind every skyline is a community of Engineers.

At Jordan & Skala Engineers (JSE), we design the systems behind the multifamily and mixed‑use buildings shaping growing cities, skylines, and neighborhoods—everything from mid‑rise and high‑rise mixed‑use towers to garden‑style communities, including podium and garage‑wrap construction. If you like complex buildings, thoughtful coordination, and seeing your work move from model to jobsite, you’ll fit in well here!

We’re looking for a Senior Plumbing Engineer/Designer (10+ years of experience preferred) who can own design, collaborate in a technology driven BIM environment, and support projects through construction.

• Design domestic water, storm drainage, sanitary waste and vent, and natural gas distribution systems
• Size, select, schedule, and specify plumbing components including fixtures, specialties, and equipment
• Support fire protection design (including pumps, standpipes, and specialty systems)
• Produce clear, coordinated documentation for new construction and renovations

• Lead plumbing design for a range of building types, including:
  • High‑rise and mid‑rise apartments (including towers requiring complex riser strategies)
  • Garden‑style and low‑rise communities with repeatable unit stacks and phased construction
  • Student housing with high fixture density and durability‑focused specifications
  • Luxury multifamily with extensive amenity areas (pools, fitness, club rooms, rooftop/terrace programs, etc.)
  • Mixed‑use buildings that combine residential with retail/restaurant and other street‑level uses
  • Podium and garage‑wrap configurations that add coordination complexity across levels and occupancies
• Coordinate plumbing systems in a real‑time Revit/BIM workflow alongside mechanical, electrical, structural, and architectural teams
• Contribute to practical, code‑aligned solutions for the “hard parts” of these buildings—tight shafts, repetitive stacks, equipment room constraints, and fast schedules

• Support construction administration including submittal reviews, RFI responses, field observations, and documentation updates
• Travel for job site visits and building surveys as required

• Mentor and support the development of designers and early‑career engineers through plan reviews, guidance, and knowledge‑sharing
• Help maintain quality and consistency across plumbing deliverables, including coordination checks and documentation standards

• Strong working proficiency in Revit (plumbing design within a BIM workflow)
• Solid understanding of plumbing codes and how systems interact in dense, multidisciplinary projects
• Experience leading plumbing design for multi‑discipline building projects and coordinating with internal and external stakeholders
• Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related engineering discipline (or equivalent experience, if applicable)

• 10+ years of plumbing/fire protection design experience (consulting engineering preferred)
• EIT or P.E. license (or clear path toward licensure)
• ASPE CPD certification

JSE supports a robust portfolio of project types including multifamily, mixed‑use, commercial,
hospitality, office, retail/restaurant, industrial, data center, and healthcare construction projects.
