IIT Madras 2026 Project Manager Recruitment - 01 Vacancy

This role is ideal for proactive and organized professionals holding a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Engineering or Management, coupled with 2-5 years of experience in project coordination or management. Candidates should possess strong communication, organizational, and time management skills, proficiency in MS Office, and a keen interest in contributing to cutting-edge AI-driven digital mobility solutions within a dynamic research environment like IIT Madras's MInT initiative.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment should not apply, as this is a temporary and contractual position. Candidates without the specified academic background in engineering or management, or those lacking the mandatory 2-5 years of project coordination/management experience, will find this role unsuitable. The limited number of vacancies (01) also makes it unsuitable for those looking for large-scale recruitment drives.

Working as a Project Manager at IIT Madras, particularly within the MInT initiative, offers significant prestige and exposure. It provides a unique opportunity to collaborate with leading researchers, policymakers, and industry partners on projects shaping the future of sustainable and digital mobility in India. While contractual, this role can substantially enhance a candidate's profile, providing invaluable experience in a premier academic and research institution, which is highly beneficial for future career growth in technology and research sectors.
