POSTED ON 4/24/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 6/24/2026


DigiStream Investigations, a fast-growing, national private investigation firm, is seeking a talented addition to our investigative team in Miami, FL.

This isn’t a desk job - being a Surveillance Investigator means you’ll have a career with excitement, travel, autonomy, and purpose. This role is meant for an individual with an adventurous and curious spirit, and the drive to provide our clients with the evidence they need to defend their cases.

What you’ll get:

  • A foot in the door to the investigations fields
  • Experience conducting covert investigations
  • A job you’ll love going to - no one day is the same
  • Opportunities for growth within the company via our Surveillance Investigator Promotion Track
  • Unlike most PI companies, DigiStream provides full benefits, a company vehicle, and paid travel
  • Professional, hands-on training program developed over the course of 20 years
  • Team-building events and comradery with fellow team members
  • The skills you learn here can lead to jobs in:
    • FBI / Law Enforcement
    • State Crime Lab
    • Law / Paralegal / Legal Assistant
    • Security
    • Corporate Investigations
    • Investigative Journalism

What a day in the life of an investigator looks like:

  • Monitoring, following, and videotaping subjects as they conduct their day-to-day activities
  • Vehicle and foot pursuit of subjects while maintaining cover
  • Activity varies from filming someone at a grocery store or restaurant to filming them at a sporting event or a casino
  • Crafting pre-surveillance strategies based on the setup location and case details
  • Detailed report writing on the activities observed/captured and submission of video evidence
  • Regular communication with team leader on setup positions, activity and tactics

  • Must be 21 years or older
  • 40-50 hours per week on average (includes commute & drive time)
  • Willingness to travel and stay overnight on remote assignments frequently
  • Availability to work any day of the week, including weekends and holidays
  • Ability to start work as early as 5:00 am daily with occasional work into the evenings
  • Must currently live in the Miami area
  • Ability to pass DMV check & background check
  • Confident driving skills
  • No PI license required - we cover the licensure cost and guide you through the process

Compensation/benefits/promotions:

  • Starting pay: $18.00 per hour
  • Employee Benefits: Health, dental, vision, life insurance, and 401(k) with up to 4% company match
  • Performance incentives
  • Paid travel to and from local and remote assignments
  • Cellphone reimbursement
  • Equipment provided including video camera, laptop, tripod, fuel & maintenance card
  • Company-provided vehicle
  • We hire at the entry level and promote from within based on performance

Note: Position does not require daily commute to an office or motor pool as your surveillance vehicle is entrusted to you and is kept at your residence on a daily basis. Travel to and from assignments will begin and end at your residence.

**Only apply if you have availability to work any of the 7 days of the week, and only if you can work a 5 day per week schedule with an average of 10-12 hours per day, including weekends and holidays**

Salary : $18
