Professional Solutions1, LLC (Pro Sol) 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.

The Counter-SIGMAN Instructor / SME will:

• Provide advanced classroom instruction to up to 40 Marines.
• Remain onsite throughout the entire three-day instructional period.
• Work collaboratively with the Lead Counter-SIGMAN Instructor and other Pro Sol personnel.
• Deliver technically accurate, operationally relevant instruction tailored to reconnaissance personnel.
• Answer advanced technical and tactical student questions.
• Facilitate student discussions, tactical planning exercises, and case-study analysis.
• Evaluate student understanding and mission-planning performance.
• Assist in identifying recurring signature vulnerabilities and recommending mitigation techniques.
• Support development and refinement of course presentations, student handouts, reference guides, and instructional materials.

Provide instruction concerning how adversaries employ multi-spectral detection systems and how reconnaissance teams can assess and reduce vulnerabilities across multiple signature domains.

Topics include:

• Audio and acoustic signatures
• Tactical movement and equipment noise
• Electro-optical and visual signatures
• Camouflage and concealment considerations
• Infrared and thermal signatures
• Near-Infrared detection
• Thermal footprint reduction
• Electromagnetic and RF signatures
• Wireless signals
• Appropriate tactical waveform employment
• Digital footprints
• Device-pairing emissions
• Personal and tactical electronic-device signatures

Provide instruction on:

• Type 1 and Type 2 UAS capabilities
• UAS sensor capabilities
• Detection thresholds
• Thermal-signature mitigation

Provide instruction concerning:

• Seismic sensors
• Acoustic sensors
• Infrared sensors
• Magnetic sensors
• Active sensor systems
• Passive sensor systems
• Recognition of possible sensor arrays
• Sensor detection and bypass considerations

Assist students in integrating:

• Multi-spectral SIGMAN
• Threat analysis

into the planning and execution of amphibious and ground R&S missions.

Facilitate:

• Tactical mission-planning exercises
• Student-led planning
