Our commitment to delivering fast, high-quality, and reliable investigations has made us the partner of choice for our clients. APEX Investigation's mission is to build lasting relationships through trust, integrity and quality investigations. The APEX team lives out that mission by providing constant communication, results you can use, delivered fast at a fair price.
The Role
We are seeking a Surveillance Investigator to join our dynamic team. In this role, you'll conduct stationary and mobile surveillance, gather critical intelligence, and produce detailed reports that help clients make informed decisions. Every day offers new challenges and opportunities to showcase your investigative expertise and problem-solving skills.

Key Responsibilities
  • Perform discreet stationary and mobile surveillance using your own nondescript vehicle

  • Submit accurate, detailed, and timely case reports using our online case management system
  • Analyze case details to define objectives and verify crucial information such as addresses, phone numbers, and vehicle descriptions
  • Maintain constant communication with management for real-time updates on investigations

Day in The Life of a PI
Here's what a typical day actually looks like - no two are the same, but this gives you a feel for the work.
  • Conducting discreet surveillance by monitoring, following, and capturing video footage of subjects as they go about their daily activities
  • Engaging in both vehicle and foot surveillance while maintaining cover and situational awareness
  • Observing and documenting a variety of activities, from routine errands like grocery shopping to dynamic environments such as the gym, sporting events, or the movies
  • Developing effective pre-surveillance strategies tailored to the location and specific case details
  • Preparing detailed, accurate reports on all observed activities and submitting high-quality video evidence to support findings
  • Maintaining consistent communication with your team leader to update on activity and adjust strategies as needed

  • Ability to work an average of 40-50 hours per week, starting as early as 5:00-7:00 AM
  • A valid driver's license with a clean driving record
  • Strong and confident driving skills
  • A valid credit card for reimbursable travel and gas expenses
  • Must successfully pass a pre-employment background check
  • Proficiency in using a Windows laptop with the latest operating system

Preferred
  • Degree in Criminal Justice or a related field and/or experience in Loss Prevention
  • Bonus: Bilingual (Spanish) or military veteran experience

  • To ensure your vehicle blends into its surroundings, it must meet the following criteria:
  • Nondescript, neutral colors (e.g., earth tones); prohibited colors include red, yellow, orange, and maroon
  • No convertibles, pickup trucks, electric vehicles, or vehicles with loud exhaust, aftermarket wheels, or personalized license plates
  • Approved window tinting must comply with state law
  • Vehicle must be in safe, reliable condition and regularly maintained by the investigator.

Why APEX
  • Work independently - no office, no micromanaging. You run your own day in the field.
  • Get paid to travel - mileage and travel time are both compensated. California is your office.
  • Earn your PI license - every hour in the field counts toward your California Private Investigator License.
  • Real mentorship - you'll have an experienced manager in your corner, not just a supervisor checking boxes.
  • A team that has your back - field investigators who know the work and support each other.
  • Competitive pay that grows - performance bonuses reward results, not just showing up.

Benefits
  • Medical
  • Dental
  • Vision
