CSIR-NATIONAL GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE Consultant (Technical) Recruitment 2026 (1 Vacancy)

This role is ideally suited for highly experienced, retired Central/State Government or Autonomous Body employees who have served at Pay Level-13 or above. The ideal candidate will possess a Master's Degree in Electronics & Communication Engineering and a minimum of 20 years of hands-on experience in seismological field work, including instrumentation, operation, and maintenance. They should be looking for a short-term contractual engagement to leverage their deep expertise for national research initiatives.

Candidates lacking a Master's in ECE, less than 20 years of specific seismological field experience, or who have not retired from a senior government/autonomous body position (Pay Level-13 or equivalent) should not apply. Individuals seeking long-term, permanent employment will find this short-term contractual role (initially 6 months) unsuitable. The age limit of 64 years for application is also a firm criterion.

Working with CSIR-NGRI, a prestigious national geophysical research institute, offers a significant opportunity for experienced professionals to contribute to high-impact scientific projects. While the role is contractual and offers limited direct long-term career progression within this specific position, it provides substantial professional recognition, intellectual engagement, and the chance to contribute invaluable expertise to a leading scientific organization in India.
