Senior Project Associate

This role is ideal for Mechanical Engineering graduates (B.E./B. Tech) with a minimum of 3 years of demonstrated R&D experience in industrial, academic, or scientific organizations. Candidates seeking project-based, temporary engagement in environmental engineering research, and those comfortable with online interview processes, will find this opportunity suitable.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment or those without the specific 3 years of post-qualification R&D experience in relevant fields should not apply. Candidates awaiting their final semester results or Ph.D. submission are explicitly ineligible. Those unwilling to commit to a temporary, project-specific role with no implied right to regularization should also consider other options.

CSIR-NEERI is a prestigious national institute under the Council of Scientific & Industrial Research, offering significant exposure to environmental engineering research projects. While this is a temporary project-based position, it provides valuable experience working on a nationally relevant project ('Management, Handling, Utilization and Disposal of Phosphogypsum Generated from Phosphoric Acid Plant'). The role offers good monthly emoluments (Rs. 42,000 + HRA) but does not guarantee long-term stability or career advancement within CSIR-NEERI, as it is co-terminus with the project.
