Training Dates: September 16–18, 2026
Customer: U.S. Marine Corps, 2d Reconnaissance Battalion
Position Summary
Professional Solutions1, LLC (ProSol) is seeking a highly qualified Counter-SIGMAN Instructor / Subject Matter Expert (SME) to provide specialized tactical classroom instruction to Marines assigned to 2d Reconnaissance Battalion at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, North Carolina.
The instructor will support a three-day Counter Signature Management (SIGMAN) training course consisting of 24 hours of instruction for up to 40 Marines.
Training will focus on identifying, analyzing, and mitigating multi-spectral signatures that can expose reconnaissance forces to detection by modern peer and near-peer adversary sensor systems. Instruction will include multi-spectral signature auditing, counter-UAS signature management, ground-sensor detection and mitigation, and integration of signature-management techniques into amphibious and ground Reconnaissance and Surveillance (R&S) operations.
The successful candidate must possess recent experience instructing military tactical units and a strong operational or technical background in SOF, reconnaissance, Electronic Warfare, SIGMAN, counter-UAS, cybersecurity/information operations, UAS operations, or related disciplines.
