Location: San Francisco, CA Full‑Time Competitive Pay + Paid Training

At Lemieux & Associates, we believe the mission doesn't end when service does - it evolves. We're proud to introduce "GIs to PIs", an initiative connecting military veterans, service leaders, and recently separated professionals with meaningful careers in investigations.

Your Next Mission Starts Here

You’ve built discipline, awareness, and mission focus through your service.

Now it’s time to apply those skills in a civilian career that values them.

We’re hiring Surveillance Investigators and actively seeking former military and transitioning service members.

Looking for a new career? We train you.

Built for Veterans

We recognize the value of military experience and are committed to helping veterans successfully transition into civilian careers.

Your skills translate. Your experience matters.

Apply today and start your career in investigations.

Why This Role Fits Veterans

This job mirrors many skills from military service:

• Situational awareness & observation
• Working independently in the field
• Following protocols and documenting activity
• Maintaining focus during long operations
• Protecting sensitive information

If you've worked patrol, security, intelligence, or field operations - this will feel familiar.
