Principal Project Scientist

This role is ideal for highly experienced researchers holding a PhD in Chemistry, Nanotechnology, Textiles, or Fiber Science. Candidates must possess a minimum of three years of post-PhD experience in chemical synthesis, polymer processing, and biotechnology, coupled with practical skills in anti-microbial compound formulation, microbial testing, and knowledge of quality management systems for medical devices. The position is suitable for those seeking a project-based, contractual research role within a prestigious academic institution.

Individuals lacking a PhD in the specified fields or without the mandatory three years of post-PhD experience in relevant areas should not apply. Those seeking a permanent government position or a role outside a research project environment may find this opportunity unsuitable due to its contractual and project-limited nature. Candidates without expertise in medical device-related standards or quality management systems may also be at a disadvantage.

Working as a Principal Project Scientist at IIT Delhi, a premier Indian Institute of Technology, offers significant academic and research prestige. This role, while contractual and project-bound, provides exposure to cutting-edge research in antimicrobial materials for medical applications, enhancing one's professional portfolio. Opportunities for advanced research contributions and collaboration within a top-tier institution contribute to long-term career growth in specialized scientific domains, particularly for those aiming for further research or academic roles.
