Project Associate & Scientific Administrative Assistant

This role is ideal for individuals with a background in Engineering, Technology, Natural/Agricultural Sciences, Veterinary Science, Medicine, or any graduate discipline, who possess an interest in Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and practical experience with development platforms like Raspberry Pi or Jetson Nano. It suits candidates seeking project-based, full-time contractual work within a dynamic research environment, and those interested in contributing to STEM education projects.

Candidates seeking permanent government employment should not apply, as these are contractual positions co-terminus with the project (initially 8 months, extendable). Individuals without the specified academic qualifications or who are unwilling to work on a time-bound project basis will find this unsuitable. Given the low number of vacancies, those looking for large-scale recruitment drives may also find this less appealing.

Working at IIIT Dharwad, an Institute of National Importance, offers significant academic and research exposure, especially in contemporary fields like AI and Machine Learning. Although contractual, this experience can be highly valuable for future career progression in academia, specialized tech industries, or for pursuing higher studies (M.Tech/PhD), enhancing one's professional profile within a reputable institutional setting.
