Construction Project Engineer Jobs in Florida: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a construction project engineer in Florida?
Start with a bachelor's degree in civil engineering, construction management, or a related field, then register as an Engineer Intern through the Florida Board of Professional Engineers if you're on a PE licensure track. Most Florida employers hire construction project engineers directly from accredited programs, and gaining field experience on commercial or infrastructure projects in Florida's permit-heavy environment accelerates career progression significantly.

Construction project engineers in Florida earn a median of about $98,570 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $58,640 for the lowest 10% to over $166,680 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire construction project engineers in Florida?
Employers hiring construction project engineers in Florida right now include Structural, HITT Contracting, and Hubbard Construction Company, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Florida's sustained commercial and infrastructure growth means large general contractors and owners' representatives consistently maintain open roles across the state.
Which Florida cities have the most construction project engineer jobs?
Orlando, Hialeah, and Miramar have the most construction project engineer openings in Florida, driven by concentrated commercial development, major infrastructure investment, and the headquarters or large regional offices of leading general contractors that cluster in those metro areas and generate consistent project demand.
Are there remote construction project engineer jobs in Florida?
Yes, but they're rare. About 0% of construction project engineer openings tied to Florida are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting the hands-on, site-dependent nature of most project engineer responsibilities. The portions of the role most suited to remote work include document control, submittal review, scheduling updates, and coordination calls handled off-site.

The most realistic entry path is applying to assistant project engineer or field engineer roles with large Florida general contractors, which routinely hire recent graduates into structured training programs. Companies such as Turner Construction and Skanska run new-grad development tracks through their Florida offices. Registering as an Engineer Intern with the Florida Board of Professional Engineers and completing an OSHA 30-Hour certification strengthens any entry-level application considerably.
