Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad Recruitment 2026: 01 Fire Safety Officer Vacancy

This role is ideal for experienced Fire Safety professionals holding a B.E./B.Tech in Fire Engineering or equivalent qualifications like a Divisional Officer Course or Sub-Fire Officers College combined with an Advanced Diploma in Industrial Safety (ADIS). Candidates must have a minimum of 2-5 years of practical experience in fire safety within high-rise buildings and be willing to reside on campus or be able to reach within 5-10 minutes. This contractual position suits individuals seeking a temporary, yet impactful, role within a prestigious educational institution.

Individuals without specific certifications such as a B.E./B.Tech in Fire Engineering, Divisional Officer Course, or Sub-Fire Officers College coupled with an ADIS, and the requisite 2-5 years of experience in high-rise building fire safety, should not apply. Those primarily seeking permanent government employment or roles with extensive long-term career progression and a high number of vacancies may find this single, contractual post less suitable.

Working at an Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) carries significant institutional prestige, offering exposure to a national institute environment. While this particular role is contractual for 11 months with potential for extension, it provides valuable experience within a leading academic institution. The scope for individual advancement within this specific role is limited given its contractual nature and single vacancy, but it offers a chance to contribute to campus safety at a high-profile government-backed entity.
