Project Research Scientist I

This role is ideally suited for B.Tech/B.E. graduates in Computer Science, IT, or Engineering with a strong background in AI/ML development, particularly with Python, LLMs, and full-stack development skills. Candidates interested in a research-focused, short-term (initially 6 months, extendable) project involving cutting-edge AI applications in mental health, under the aegis of a prestigious institution like AIIMS, will find this a valuable opportunity.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment or roles with long-term security should not apply, as this is a contractual, project-based position with an initial 6-month tenure. Candidates without a strong technical foundation in AI development, as outlined in the desirable qualifications, will also find this role challenging. Those looking for a high-volume recruitment drive should also reconsider, given the limited number of vacancies.

Working at AIIMS, New Delhi, a premier medical institution, offers significant prestige and exposure. This project, focused on 'Reducing Treatment Gap Through AI,' provides an excellent opportunity to contribute to impactful research in a niche and rapidly evolving field. While the role is contractual, it can serve as a strong foundational experience or a career enhancer for research scientists aiming for specialized roles in AI in healthcare, potentially leading to future opportunities within research or academia.
