Technical Officer

This role is ideally suited for Indian citizens with a B.Sc. (7 years experience) or B.Tech/B.V.Sc./M.Sc. (3 years experience) in a relevant scientific discipline. The ideal candidate will possess significant hands-on laboratory experience in complex techniques, advanced instrumental analysis, animal cell culture, molecular biology (RT-PCR, Western blotting, gene silencing), and proficiency with laboratory equipment like inverted microscopes and CO2 incubators. Strong knowledge of bio-analytical techniques, laboratory safety, and quality assurance, alongside proficiency in statistical and computer software (Word, Excel), are also highly valued.

Candidates lacking the specified essential educational qualifications or the mandatory years of relevant laboratory experience will not be considered. Individuals exceeding the maximum age limit of 35 years (without applicable government relaxations) are ineligible. Given this is a single vacancy, applicants must be prepared for extremely high competition and a rigorous selection process. Those seeking immediate career advancement opportunities may find a single-post recruitment less appealing.

The National Institute of Animal Biotechnology (NIAB) is an autonomous institute under the Ministry of Science & Technology, Government of India, offering a stable and reputable central government employment. The position provides an opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research in animal health and productivity. While it is a single post, a role within such an institute offers excellent exposure to advanced scientific work, potential for long-term career stability, and contribution to national scientific goals.
