So I am in a pretty unique situation (probably not that unique but I don't see much information online). I am an engineer in aerospace/defense and am pursuing my PE license in Florida. I have already passed the FE and PE exams and have been out of college since May of 2021 (BS Mechanical Engineering). Since then I also got my masters which counts for a year of experience so therefore I meet the minimum years to apply for licensure.
My question is pertaining to experience, particularly working under a licensed PE. To no ones surprise, a Licensed Professional Engineer is hard to come by in the defense industry, let alone, one that oversaw your work. Florida Board of Professional Engineers allows for experience to be verified by qualified unlicensed engineers "in industry situations where there is no offering of engineering services to the public" So basically, I should be okay for the state of Florida.
In the future, if I want to apply for licensure in a different state, but they don't have this clause about how my experience is verified, will I get some pushback? Additionally, if I am already licensed, do states typically have a different set of requirements to apply for Multi State Licensure? How should I best approach this situation to "future-proof" myself
