Seawall slope too high?

TLDR is this slope too steep this close to the house?

I'm completely renovating this house that sits 3 ft from a sea wall for a canal, location Florida, soil is all sand. The slope of the wall is super steep and im wondering if this even generates enough pressure to keep the soil under the hosue from shifting. Sudden landslide is also a worry on my mind.

The wall won't get much wave action so im not worried about erosion in that sense.

Also wondering if this corner was possibly built with piers in the ground due to this risk.
