Opportunities for Hillsborough & Pinellas County Paramedics
Live in Tampa or Hillsborough County? Work Fewer Days as a Florida Paramedic
Our 24-hour shift structure allows experienced paramedics to work fewer days per week while earning competitive pay, making the drive to Southwest Florida a practical and worthwhile trade-off.
Earn $28.00–$36.00 per hour with scheduling options designed for paramedics who value predictability, recovery time, and long-term sustainability.
Why Tampa Bay Paramedics Choose Ambitrans
Ambitrans is a strong option for paramedics seeking some of the highest paying paramedic jobs in Florida, combined with schedules that reduce burnout common in busy Tampa Bay EMS environments.
Paramedics from Hillsborough and Pinellas County choose Ambitrans because our scheduling model works differently than many hospital-based or emergency-only roles in the Tampa area.
Instead of commuting daily or cycling through short, exhausting shifts, Ambitrans paramedics often work one to two days per week with extended time off between shifts.
When workdays are concentrated and recovery time is protected, a longer commute becomes manageable — especially when paired with competitive pay and a lower-burnout environment.
24-Hour Shifts Designed for Fewer Commutes
These roles are ideal for paramedics specifically seeking paramedic jobs with 24 hour shifts that reduce weekly commuting while maintaining full-time earnings.
Ambitrans offers two primary 24-hour shift options:
- 24 / 48: Work 24 hours, followed by 48 hours off
- 24 / 72: Work 24 hours, followed by 72 hours off
During scheduled shifts, paramedics are based on-site with sleeping quarters provided. When not responding to calls, downtime may include resting or personal time while remaining ready to respond as needed.
You are paid for your scheduled hours. Shift availability varies by location.
Competitive Paramedic Pay for Tampa Bay Professionals
We have recently increased paramedic wages to remain competitive with major hospital systems and regional providers.
Pay rates, shift schedules, and availability may vary by location and operational needs.
A Non-Emergency EMS Role Focused on Sustainability
Paramedics value this model for:

This role is well-suited for experienced paramedics who want to continue patient care while improving long-term work-life balance.
