Junior Research Fellow

Ideal for engineering graduates (B.E./B.Tech) or postgraduates (M.E./M.Tech./MS) in Computer Science, IT, AI, Data Science, or ECE, who possess a valid GATE/NET qualification and strong programming skills in Python. Candidates with experience in Machine Learning, Deep Learning, NLP, Large Language Models (LLMs), and multilingual/Indic language processing are highly preferred. This role offers an excellent opportunity to pursue a Ph.D. within a sponsored research project, focusing on cutting-edge fact-verification technology.

Individuals seeking a permanent government position or those without the specified engineering/research qualifications (B.E./B.Tech. or M.E./M.Tech./MS) or GATE/NET are not suitable. Candidates lacking strong programming skills, particularly in Python, or those uninterested in temporary project-based research in AI/NLP for Indic languages should not apply.

Working as a Junior Research Fellow at SVNIT Surat, a National Institute of Technology, provides a reputable academic and research environment. This temporary position under a sponsored project offers significant exposure to advanced AI/NLP research, particularly in large language models. The provision for conversion to Ph.D. under Institute norms offers a clear long-term academic pathway, enhancing career prospects in research and academia.
