The Society for Applied Microwave Electronics Engineering and Research (SAMEER), an autonomous society under MeitY, has released two advertisements for 174 contract posts. Advt 10/2026 has 140 openings at Mumbai / Navi Mumbai and Advt 11/2026 has 34 openings at Kolkata. The posts include Project Technical Assistant, Project Engineer, Project Scientific Assistant, scientists, managers and executives, with consolidated pay of ₹21,000 to ₹55,000 a month.
Candidates from ITI, Diploma, graduate and engineering backgrounds can all find a post here. Whether you are looking for government jobs in Maharashtra or government jobs in West Bengal, read the post-wise tables below. Apply online by 15 November 2026. Keep reading on GovtJobsAlert.in so you do not miss any detail.
| Detail | Information |
|---|---|
| Organisation | Society for Applied Microwave Electronics Engineering and Research (SAMEER) |
| Advertisement Numbers | 10/2026 (Mumbai / Navi Mumbai) and 11/2026 (Kolkata) |
| Total Vacancies | 174 (140 + 34) |
| Type of Job | Contract, on consolidated pay |
| Contract Period | 2 years, or the project duration if that is earlier |
| Last Date to Apply | 15 November 2026 (23:59 hours) |
The posts are purely contractual and project-specific. They do not confer any right to regularisation, absorption or continuation of service in SAMEER. The notification also says the number of posts is only indicative and may go up or down with project needs. The Kolkata posts are linked to the Microwave Radiometers work under Mission Mausam.
Neither advertisement gives a category-wise (UR / OBC / SC / ST / EWS) split, so the tables show post-wise vacancies only. Where a row covers levels A, B and C, the PDF gives one combined count, not a count per level.

PE02 appears in both advertisements with different counts (24 at Mumbai, 7 at Kolkata). Each count is added once, which gives 174 for the two advertisements together.
Every post needs the stated degree, diploma or ITI with minimum 55% marks (or equivalent CGPA), awarded on or before the closing date. Pick your own row carefully, because posts at different levels ask for different experience.

Notice that a Project Technical Assistant is paid one step below a Project Scientific Assistant of the same level. The notification mentions no other allowance, so plan on the consolidated figure.
The stages depend on your post category.
| Category | Posts | Stages |
|---|---|---|
| CAT-A | Project Engineers / Associates, Senior Project Engineers / Associates | Written Test, Online Interview, In-person Interview |
| CAT-B | Project Fellow, Project Manager, Project Scientist, Senior Project Scientist, Project Executive, Senior Project Executive | Online Interview, In-person Interview |
| CAT-C | Project Scientific Assistants | Written Test, then In-person Interview and/or Skill Test |
| CAT-D | Project Technical Assistants, Project Executive Assistants (A)/(B) | Written Test, then In-person Interview and/or Skill Test |
First, your marks in the qualifying degree, diploma or ITI are screened against the 55% minimum. A written test, where there is one, is held online (CBT) or in person, and 50% or above qualifies you. Candidates are ordinarily shortlisted for the online interview at 1:6 or more, and for the in-person interview at 1:3 or more. For posts without a written round, shortlisting is on your qualifying-exam marks, ordinarily at 1:6 or more.
An in-person interview (or, for Scientific/Technical Assistants, a skill test) is mandatory; final selection uses only those marks. The syllabus follows the general curriculum of government universities and colleges for your course. The notification does not give the number of questions, marks or duration, and SAMEER may change the process, so check the SAMEER website regularly.
| Condition | What it means for you |
|---|---|
| Citizenship | Only Indian citizens will be considered |
| Cut-off date | The degree, certificate, marks and experience must be in hand as on the crucial dates. The degree must be awarded on or before the closing date |
| Final-year students | For Project Engineer / Associate posts only, those awaiting results may apply where the advertisement specifically permits it. A pass certificate is needed at joining |
| False information | False or incorrect details, hidden facts or forged documents can lead to cancellation or termination |
| Documents | Failing to produce the required originals may result in disqualification |
| Earlier SAMEER staff | Those who served at a SAMEER Centre as Research Scientist, Project Engineer or Project Associate for 5 years or more in total are not eligible for Project Engineer or Project Associate posts |
| Refusing the offer | Those who decline or fail to join after an offer will not be considered for contract appointment for the next 2 years |
| Canvassing | Canvassing or bringing influence is treated as a disqualification |
| Travel | No TA/DA for the written test, skill test or interviews |
| Current employees | Selected candidates who are employed must submit a relieving letter at joining |
| Posting | You may be posted at any SAMEER Centre in India, and you cannot claim accommodation as a right |
| Shortlisting | Having the qualification does not confer any right to be called, and appearing in a stage does not confer any right to selection |
| Contract terms | The job does not confer any right to regularisation or automatic extension, and experience beyond the prescribed period earns no extra increment. Inclusion in the panel does not confer any right to appointment |
| Contact | No individual requests about shortlisting or non-selection will normally be entertained |
Applications are online only. Do not send the form by post.
Carry the printout, your originals and one set of self-attested photocopies to the interview or skill test. Keep your date of birth proof, photo ID (Aadhaar, PAN, Voter ID or Driving Licence), 10th and applicable 12th marksheets, ITI (NTC) mark sheet and NAC certificate (for technical assistant posts), degree certificate with all-year marks, and experience certificate, signed and stamped. Reserved-category candidates should keep their caste, OBC-NCL (valid on the closing date), disability or discharge certificate ready.
