Project Associate II

This role is ideal for engineers holding a B.E./B.Tech (or preferred M.E./M.Tech) in CSE, IT, ECE, or EEE, with at least two years of relevant industry or academic experience. Candidates should have a strong academic record (minimum 60% or 6.5 CGPA) and a keen interest in deep learning models, object detection, multi-modal perception for autonomous drones, and related research. It's particularly suitable for those aspiring to register for a PhD/M.S. programme at NITT while working.

Candidates without the specified engineering degree or the mandatory minimum of two years of relevant experience should not apply. Those exceeding 35 years of age (before age relaxations) or individuals primarily seeking permanent government employment with traditional pay scales may find this consolidated, project-based role less suitable. Applicants who do not meet the academic percentage/CGPA criteria will also be ineligible.

Working at NIT Tiruchirappalli, a National Institute of Technology, offers excellent exposure to a high-calibre academic and research environment. The project's association with IIT Mandi further enhances its research prestige. While the role is contractual for 6 months (extendable), it provides a valuable opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research in autonomous drones and potentially pursue higher studies (PhD/M.S.) within the institution, significantly boosting one's academic and research career profile.
