SAMEER Recruitment 2026 – 34 Vacancies, Apply Online

Engineering and diploma posts require a minimum of 55% marks in the qualifying examination. Candidates who meet the marks requirement but hold a qualification from a non-government recognised institution should verify recognition in the official notification before applying, since the notification specifies government recognised institutions.

ITI candidates applying for Technical Assistant posts must hold a valid NAC for the specific trade: Electronics Mechanic, Fitter or Machinist. Candidates with a degree but no ITI trade certificate cannot apply for these posts. Project Executive and Project Executive Assistant candidates need a bachelor's degree in B.Com., B.Sc., B.A. or BBA/BBS, with MBA/MMS (full-time) required only for the Project Executive post.

• Project Engineer (Electronics / EXTC / ECE): ₹34,000 per month, 7 posts.
• Project Executive: ₹32,000 per month, 1 post.
• Project Scientific Assistant (A), Electronics and Mechanical: ₹23,500 per month, 8 posts combined. Project Executive Assistant (A): ₹23,500 per month, 2 posts.
• Project Technical Assistant (A), Electronics Mechanic, Fitter and Machinist: ₹21,000 per month, 16 posts combined.

The notification states consolidated monthly pay for each post and does not mention a pay level or pay matrix. Whether any NPS, provident fund or other deduction applies, and the tax position, are not specified in notification, so see the official notification before estimating your take-home pay. The salary calculator can help you estimate deductions once you confirm the applicable scheme. Because these are project-linked posts, the notification's own terms on contract duration and any continuation or renewal should be read carefully, as these determine long-term career growth. Private sector electronics and ITI-trade employers in West Bengal offer comparable starting pay, so the decision should rest on job security, duration and the work itself.

• Wrong photo or signature format: Uploads outside the specified size, dimension or file format are a common reason for rejection on the SAMEER portal. Check the notification before using the image resizer.
• Incomplete education details: Enter the exact board or university name, percentage or CGPA, and year of passing as stated on your marksheet.
• Miscalculating the age limit: Calculate your age on the last date of 15 November 2026, and do not assume any relaxation unless the notification confirms it.
• Wrong category claim: Claim SC, ST, OBC or PwD status only if you hold a valid certificate in the required format, and select the correct category in the form.
• Trade or qualification mismatch: Applying for an ITI trade without a matching NAC, or for a diploma post with a degree-only qualification, leads to rejection at scrutiny.
• Missing documents at verification: Keep original certificates, marksheets, NAC, category and ID proof ready, as they are required at document verification.

Selected candidates are expected to go through document verification, where original certificates, marksheets, NAC, category certificates and ID proof are checked against the application. The notification does not specify whether a medical examination or a separate training period applies, so confirm these details in the official notification. The posting location is stated as West Bengal, and any specific centre or project assignment will be communicated by SAMEER after appointment. Joining formalities and the exact timeline from selection to joining are not specified in notification, so check the official notice for updates.

SAMEER is an autonomous research and development society under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) of the Government of India. It works on applied microwave electronics, electromagnetics and related engineering research, and its centres include a Kolkata unit where these posts are based.

The organisation is a government-funded body, which makes it a credible employer for candidates who value a stable public-sector research environment. Its work covers areas such as radar, communication and electronic systems, so project-based roles provide hands-on exposure to applied engineering. Candidates should review the official SAMEER website for the latest information on its programmes and centres.

Project Engineer posts involve engineering work on electronics, EXTC and ECE projects, including design support, testing and documentation. Scientific Assistant posts support laboratory and project work in electronics or mechanical disciplines, while Technical Assistant posts involve hands-on fabrication, assembly, fitting and machining work in the relevant trade. Project Executive and Project Executive Assistant posts are administrative and coordination roles that support project operations.

Duties for field and workshop roles are likely to involve lab or workshop-based work, with some desk-based documentation. The notification does not specify the uniform policy, reporting structure or tools used, so confirm these details in the official notification or after joining.
