Deputy Chief Technology Officer

This role is ideally suited for highly experienced IT professionals with a strong background in a regulated financial sector (banks, NBFCs, insurance). The ideal candidate will possess 20+ years of post-qualification experience, with significant leadership in enterprise infrastructure, cyber security, cloud environments, and digital transformation. A Bachelor's degree in engineering is mandatory, and an MBA is an advantage. Individuals who are strategic thinkers, capable of driving technology roadmaps, and proficient in regulatory compliance (RBI, CERT-In, DPDP Act) should consider applying. The position is full-time and contractual, offering an opportunity to contribute significantly to SIDBI's mission.

Candidates lacking the extensive minimum experience of 20 years in IT, particularly the 12 years in a regulated financial sector, will not be suitable. Those without a Bachelor's degree in engineering from a premium institute are ineligible. Individuals seeking a permanent government position should note this is a contractual role. Applicants who are unwilling to be based in Mumbai should not apply, as it is the specified place of posting.

SIDBI is a premier Development Financial Institution established by an Act of Parliament, playing a pivotal role in the MSME sector's growth. The Deputy Chief Technology Officer position offers a high-impact, strategic leadership opportunity to drive critical technological initiatives within a key financial institution. Despite being contractual, the role provides significant professional prestige and scope for influencing national economic development through technological excellence.
