Qualifications:
  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Civil, Coastal, Ocean Engineering, or a related field; a Master’s degree or higher is preferred.
  • Licensure: Professional Engineer (PE) license required in one or more states along the Gulf Coast, with the ability to obtain licensure in relevant states if not already held.
  • Experience: Minimum of 8 years of experience in coastal engineering, with demonstrated expertise in project design and implementation within the Gulf Coast or similar environments.
  • Technical Skills: Proficiency in coastal engineering software and tools (e.g., Delft3D, ADCIRC, SWAN), as well as GIS applications for coastal analysis.
  • Communication Skills: Excellent oral and written communication skills, with the ability to effectively convey complex technical information to clients, stakeholders, and team members.
  • Problem-Solving: Excellent problem-solving skills, with the ability to develop innovative solutions to complex coastal challenges.
  • Team Player: Ability to work both independently and as part of a multidisciplinary team, with a collaborative approach to project delivery.
