NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY WARANGAL, 2026, 1 Vacancy, Research Associate - I Recruitment

This role is ideal for highly motivated researchers holding a Ph.D. in Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) or an ME/MTech in ECE with a minimum of 3 years of post-qualification research, teaching, or design experience. Candidates should possess strong expertise in microwave metamaterials, intelligent reflecting surfaces, antenna design (Ansys HFSS, CST), and programming skills (MATLAB, Python, C++, Embedded electronics). Individuals seeking a temporary, project-based research opportunity within a prestigious national institute will find this position highly suitable.

Candidates lacking the specified advanced degrees (Ph.D. or ME/MTech with requisite experience) or the technical expertise in antenna design, RF circuits, and relevant software tools should not apply. Individuals looking for permanent employment should also avoid this position, as it is purely temporary and project-based. Those without a research publication in a Science Citation Indexed (SCI) journal (if applying with ME/MTech) will not meet the essential criteria.

Working as a Research Associate at the National Institute of Technology Warangal, an Institute of National Importance under the Ministry of Education, Government of India, offers significant academic prestige. This project, funded by the Anusandhan National Research Foundation (ANRF), focuses on cutting-edge 6G wireless applications, providing an excellent platform for advanced research and development. While the position is temporary, it offers invaluable experience, strong networking opportunities within a leading institution, and a chance to contribute to impactful research, enhancing future career prospects in academia or industry R&D.
