IIT Delhi Recruitment 2026: 5 Project Scientist Vacancies

This role is ideal for highly specialized candidates holding a first-class B.Tech, M.Sc., M.C.A., BE, BS, or Post Graduate degree in CSE/CS/IT. The position demands specific hands-on experience in geospatial data analysis using the Google Earth Engine platform, coupled with expertise in object detection and image processing utilizing deep learning libraries. Candidates passionate about research within a prestigious academic setting and comfortable with a project-based contractual engagement will thrive.

Individuals lacking the stipulated experience in geospatial data analysis, Google Earth Engine, or deep learning for image processing will likely not meet the shortlisting criteria. This is not a permanent government position; those seeking long-term, permanent employment or large-scale recruitment drives should consider other opportunities. Candidates without a first-class degree in the relevant disciplines will also be at a disadvantage.

Working as a Project Scientist at IIT Delhi, a premier Indian technological institution, offers significant academic prestige and an excellent platform for research and professional growth. This role provides an opportunity to contribute to the 'Developing Digital Public Infrastructure for Social Good' project, offering valuable experience in cutting-edge domains. While the appointment is contractual and project-dependent (up to 28/01/2030), it is an invaluable stepping stone for building a specialized research portfolio and networking within the academic and industrial research community.
