Recruitment-specific overview from the published record.

IIT Hyderabad Computer Centre Recruitment 2026 — 8 Contractual Technical Vacancies (IITH/CS/62)

Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad (IITH) has invited online applications for eight contractual positions in its Computer Centre under Advertisement No. IITH/CS/62 dated 10 November 2026. The five job titles are HPC System Engineer, Network Engineer, Web Developer, System Engineer and AV Technician. The institute is located at Kandi, Sangareddy, Telangana 502284. The initial contract is 11 months; continuation may be considered only according to satisfactory performance and the institute's operational requirements. These are not regular/permanent institute appointments, and the notice gives no automatic conversion into one.

The advertisement assigns seven unreserved (UR) vacancies and one OBC vacancy. Every post has a different technical focus and an individual online-application page. Most degree routes involve computer science, information technology, AI, software engineering or data science; the Network Engineer also admits listed electronics/electrical specialisations, and the AV Technician additionally has a diploma route with an experience requirement. Salary figures below are consolidated monthly remuneration, not 7th CPC pay bands.

The UR label is an unreserved seat category, not a rule that excludes otherwise eligible candidates from reserved communities applying for open competition.

🥧 Official distribution of eight IITH Computer Centre vacancies

Advertised postVacancies

Network Engineer3
Web Developer1
System Engineer1
AV Technician1

Network Engineer has the largest share at three of eight positions. The two HPC positions account for another quarter of the notification. Only the AV Technician vacancy appears in the OBC column, while the four other positions account for seven UR seats.

📊 Official reservation-category distribution

Notified reservation categoryVacancies
Unreserved (UR)7
Other Backward Classes (OBC)1

No separate EWS/SC/ST seat counts are announced in this table. The notification generally refers to age relaxation under Government of India rules, but does not publish recruitment-specific numerical increments in years; applicants should not assume any particular benefit without applying the relevant official rule.

📊 Highest stated monthly remuneration by advertised role

PostMaximum stated monthly remuneration (₹)
HPC System Engineer80000
Network Engineer45000
Web Developer40000
System Engineer40000
AV Technician32000

The chart compares the upper endpoint of each advertised consolidated monthly amount; it does not promise that every selected applicant will start at that maximum. AV Technician has one stated figure of ₹32,000 per month. The institute also says remuneration is subject to applicable statutory deductions.

📊 Minimum stated monthly remuneration by advertised role

PostMinimum stated monthly remuneration (₹)
HPC System Engineer35000
Network Engineer30000
Web Developer30000
System Engineer30000
AV Technician32000

Read both minimum and maximum endpoints where a range has been published. A wider salary band does not establish an automatic annual increment, and the notice does not publish a formula for an individual's placement within the range.

🎓 Post-wise educational eligibility — the pathways are not interchangeable

01 — HPC System Engineer: two UR seats

The institute accepts a recognised B.E./B.Tech./B.Sc. OR M.E./M.Tech./MCA in Computer Science, IT, Information Science, Software Engineering, Artificial Intelligence or Data Science. The notice describes specialist HPC infrastructure duties: administering Linux clusters, resource scheduling with Slurm/PBS/Torque/LSF, GPU environments, parallel storage, networking, systems security, automation and user support. It does not specify a numerical minimum of experience years. This absence of a years figure should not be read as a promise that an applicant without the listed systems skills will be competitive. The announced upper age is 40 years on 1 December 2026. Apply: HPC System Engineer — Post 01.

02 — Network Engineer: three UR seats

The academic route is B.E./B.Tech. OR M.E./M.Tech. OR MCA/M.Sc. in Computer Science, IT, ECE, Electrical Engineering, Information Science, Software Engineering, Artificial Intelligence or Data Science. The work involves campus LAN and Wi-Fi operations, VLAN and Layer-2 switching, managed switches, optical fibre monitoring, troubleshooting, IP and network diagrams, network deployment, vendor coordination and guiding frontline technicians. Relevant campus/enterprise networking experience and certifications provide an added advantage; no universal numeric experience threshold is printed.

Important exclusion: The advertisement expressly states that candidates with qualifications higher than those specified under the minimum educational qualification are not eligible. Because it also names certain postgraduate degrees as eligible, the exact degree held must be checked against the stated list; do not assume an unrelated higher qualification qualifies automatically. The upper age is 35 years. Apply: Network Engineer — Post 02.

03 — Web Developer: one UR seat

A candidate needs a recognised B.E./B.Tech./B.Sc. OR M.E./M.Tech./MCA in Computer Science, IT, Software Engineering, Artificial Intelligence or Data Science AND relevant experience developing and managing live websites. The experience requirement is real even though an exact number of years is not printed. The notice names Jekyll, Liquid templates, HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, Python, Linux Apache/Nginx hosting, domain/DNS/SSL, Git, CI/CD, security, website optimisation and React. This is a hands-on institutional website and deployment role rather than a front-end design-only position. Upper age: 35 years. Apply: Web Developer — Post 03.

04 — System Engineer: one UR seat

Eligibility is a recognised B.E./B.Tech./B.Sc. OR M.E./M.Tech./MCA in Computer Science, IT, Software Engineering, Artificial Intelligence or Data Science. This position supports lab PCs, workstations, servers, software deployment, backups, software licences, user accounts, Windows and Linux administration, endpoint protection and laboratory network access. No numeric minimum years of experience is printed. Upper age: 35 years. Apply: System Engineer — Post 04.

05 — AV Technician: one OBC seat; two genuine eligibility alternatives

Route A (degree/MCA): A recognised B.E./B.Tech./B.Sc./MCA in Computer Science, IT, Software Engineering, Artificial Intelligence or Data Science with at least 1 year of relevant post-qualification experience.

OR Route B (diploma): A recognised diploma in Computer Science, Electronics, Communication, IT, Software Engineering, Artificial Intelligence or Data Science with at least 2 years of relevant post-qualification experience. The printed notice places the expression “(ITI/NTC)” after the recognised-institution requirement; candidates relying on a vocational qualification should verify their precise certificate against the official wording before submitting.

The two routes are alternatives, not cumulative requirements. The work includes auditorium/classroom AV equipment, microphones, audio mixers, projectors, video walls, studio setups, online meetings, streaming, broadcast support, troubleshooting, inventory and preventive maintenance. Upper age: 35 years. Advertised consolidated monthly remuneration: ₹32,000. Apply: AV Technician — Post 05.

⏳ Age reference, prior employment and what counts as evidence

The official reference date for maximum age, educational qualifications and post-qualification experience is 1 December 2026, the online closing date. The HPC System Engineer cap is 40 years; each other role has an upper limit of 35 years. Age relaxation applies as per Government of India rules, but this advertisement does not set out a recruitment-specific numerical table. Applicants should submit valid category certificates in the prescribed format where applicable. The application annexure specifies OBC applicants must be non-creamy-layer and included in the Central List; the OBC certificate should have been issued in the preceding two years, and the EWS certificate should be for the current financial year.

For a role that requires professional experience, only experience after obtaining the minimum qualifying degree/course is counted. Part-time employment is not accepted for the stipulated experience requirement. Experience certificates must show job title, dates of service, nature of work and pay; they must be issued on an organisation's letterhead with date, issuing authority's name/designation, signature and stamp. Payslips, appointment orders and office orders alone will not be accepted as proof of experience. This is particularly important for AV Technician's one-year/two-year alternatives and for Web Developer's essential real-website experience.

📝 Selection: notified modes versus unannounced exam pattern

IIT Hyderabad states its selection modes as Written Test / Skill Test / Interview at the Kandi, Sangareddy campus. The institute also retains discretion to decide screening criteria, the number of candidates called and the testing method. The original advertisement does not notify any written-test date, exam syllabus, paper duration, question count, marking scheme, negative-marking rule, qualifying cutoff or weightage. Those details should not be borrowed from older IIT recruitment examinations or added by inference.

The skills listed against each role provide the applicant with a concrete outline of the work and knowledge the institute expects, but are not a formally published written-exam chapter-wise syllabus. HPC applicants should review the official requirements on Linux/HPC schedulers, storage and GPU clusters; Network Engineer applicants should examine switching/VLAN/Wi-Fi/fibre operations; Web Developer applicants should examine the listed Jekyll/HTML/CSS/JavaScript/Python/hosting stack; System Engineer applicants should understand workstation/server/lab support; AV Technician applicants should understand audio/video systems and signal flow. These are descriptions of advertised job competencies, not a claimed question paper blueprint.

Applicants summoned for a written test, skill assessment or interview must bring original supporting documents and self-attested copies. Venue is indicated in the notice, but a person should rely on subsequent direct official communication for the exact schedule, instructions and reporting time. No TA or DA is payable to candidates appearing for selection.

🖥️ Exact online application procedure from Annexure I

  1. Go to the official recruitment portal or select the relevant post-specific link above.
  2. Register with an active email address. Call letters and updates will be delivered to that email, so keep it functional and check the junk/spam folder.
  3. Enter name exactly as printed on the Class 10 certificate, and supply date of birth, address, mobile number, nationality and reservation/category details truthfully.
  4. Upload a recent passport-size colour photograph and signature, in JPG/JPEG, each within 1 MB, with the photograph taken within the preceding month according to the instructions.
  5. Use Add Education to enter every relevant qualification. Upload qualification certificates as PDF files, maximum 1 MB per document.
  6. Use Add Employment to enter post-qualification experience, where applicable. Upload valid experience documents as PDF files, maximum 1 MB each. Additional certificates may likewise be provided in PDF at the published size limit.
  7. Review the entire form, accept the declaration and submit. The portal will generate an application PDF and email it to the registered address. Corrections after final submission are not entertained.

A printout need not be mailed to the institute, and offline applications will be rejected. Applications missing relevant educational, age, reservation or experience evidence can be rejected without calling the applicant to a test or interview.

The offer of contractual engagement is subject to document checking and medical fitness. Selected candidates must maintain a valid health insurance policy at their own expense throughout the engagement and provide a copy when joining.

🧭 Terms of engagement worth checking before acceptance

  • Contract duration: 11 months initially; any extension requires satisfactory performance and continued institute need. Either side can terminate the contract with one month's notice.
  • Working schedule: Normally 8 hours per day, 6 days per week, with weekend or holiday duties when required by the designated supervisor.
  • Residential accommodation: No routine campus housing entitlement for contractual employees; accommodation may be considered case by case, subject to need, availability and applicable licence fee.
  • Medical care: Limited emergency outpatient access in institute facilities. The notice quotes ₹100 for normal OPD and ₹200 for specialist OPD, subject to change; reimbursement of medical expenditure is not admissible.
  • Insurance: The selected candidate must purchase and keep a suitable health-insurance policy at their own expense for the entire contract.
  • Pay: Consolidated monthly remuneration, subject to relevant statutory deductions. Separate permanent-staff pay bands or additional allowance entitlements are not promised.
  • No permanent claim: Completing the 11-month engagement does not create a right to an IIT Hyderabad regular post.
  • No travel allowance: TA/DA is not paid for attending selection procedures.
  • Vacancy flexibility: The announced eight openings may increase or decrease according to institute requirements.

❓ Candidate questions answered from the advertisement

Is this regular government employment? No. It is a contractual Computer Centre engagement initially for 11 months, with a potential performance/requirements-based extension; regular IIT staff benefits are not automatically implied.

Does a B.Sc. applicant qualify? B.Sc. is expressly an alternative in the named computing fields for HPC System Engineer, Web Developer and System Engineer; AV Technician also allows B.Sc. under its degree plus one-year experience route. The Network Engineer list names B.E./B.Tech., M.E./M.Tech., MCA and M.Sc., not B.Sc.

Is experience compulsory on all posts? Not as a single universal numeric requirement. Web Developer expressly needs relevant live-website experience without listing years. AV Technician specifies 1 or 2 years depending on the qualification route. Network Engineer describes practical networking exposure and certifications as advantageous; the HPC and System Engineer sections list extensive abilities without a uniform years threshold.

Is there an application fee? The original eight-page advertisement does not state an application-fee amount or a fee-exemption table. Do not equate silence with a declared zero-fee policy.

When is the written test? No date is announced; the institute has mentioned written/skill/interview selection modes but not an examination timetable or paper pattern.

Can I send an application by email? No. The institute requires the official online application form. The registered email is used for communications after submission.

What if I already hold a qualification higher than one listed? Network Engineer has an express exclusion relating to qualifications higher than the specified minimum educational qualification. Check the advertised exact academic pathway for that post and do not assume an extra credential overrides it.
