Michael Szelest, P.E., S.I. brings deep technical knowledge and years of field experience to every engineering consulting engagement. Through his work at ECS Florida, LLC, he has managed and overseen civil engineering consulting services across hundreds of projects, working with developers, contractors, and owners who need reliable expertise from the ground up.
Geotechnical engineering is at the core of Michael's work. His work entails evaluating underground conditions, assessing soil and material qualities, and providing engineering consulting support to projects before and during construction. He applies the same technical discipline to building sciences, helping clients understand how structures interact with their environment and ensuring that design and construction decisions are grounded in sound engineering principles.
Civil engineering projects at any level carry real consequences when the subsurface work isn't done right. Michael's background guarantees it is.
Michael's engineering consulting work also extends into environmental engineering, addressing site conditions and civil engineering challenges that affect how projects are planned, permitted, and built. Working out of Fort Myers, Florida, he supports clients managing the intersection of civil engineering requirements and environmental aspects across the area’s commercial construction environment.
Michael has managed and overseen commercial construction inspections and engineering consulting services on some of Southwest Florida's most recognized projects, including:
Ritz Carlton Estero Bay
Ritz Carlton Naples
Sunseeker Resort
Top Golf
RSW Southwest Florida International Airport
AC Marriott Naples
Paradise Coast Sports Complex
Michael handles a range of projects of various scale and scope—from luxury hospitality projects to public infrastructure. Each calls for accuracy in geotechnical engineering, materials testing, and civil engineering oversight.
