About the Project:
This Government-funded project focuses on developing advanced drone and allied technologies, including selected drone applications.

This job pertains to a sub-project that focuses on Coastal Relief Modelling and Coastal Flood Modelling. We are seeking a highly motivated Project Research Engineer to join a cutting-edge research initiative focused on coastal zone mapping and coastal flood and inundation modelling. The candidate will lead the development of a coastal flood model using open-source circulation model (ADCIRC) and Wave model (SWAN). The model will use input data along with bathymetry from open sources as well as UAV-based imagery and satellite remote sensing-based bathymetry data. This role involves field-based data collection and high-level computational modelling. The work also involves preparing regular technical reports, publishing research in peer-reviewed journals, and performing administrative work related to the project.

Qualification & Experience:

MTech / ME / or equivalent degree
OR




BTech /BE /M.Sc/MCA or equivalent degree with 2 years of relevant experience

Note: Civil/Coastal/Ocean Engineering or Coastal Management degrees are the eligible specializations. Experience in coastal hydrodynamic modelling is desirable.

Key Skills Required:

●Proven experience in ADCIRC/SWAN/Relevant modelling in Linux
●Experience in scientific programming will be added advantage.
●Positive communication and problem-solving skills.
●Ability to coordinate with drone design, UAV-based data collection and technical teams and other internal departments.
●Willingness to travel and work in outdoor coastal environments.
●Proficiency in MS Office (Excel, Word, PowerPoint) and Linux.
●Knowledge of hydrographic surveying principles is desirable
●Knowledge of coastal hydrodynamic modelling is essential
●Prior experience in publishing research in Scopus-indexed journals is a significant plus

To excel in this role, a candidate should ideally possess a mix of
