Applications must reach Dr. Manigandan at mani@iitrpr.ac.in in a single PDF by 15 November 2026. Age-limit and application-fee details are not available in the supplied material.

What the KISEM Project Involves

The position is associated with IIT Ropar’s Department of Chemical Engineering in Rupnagar, Punjab. The Kotak-IITM Save Energy Mission (KISEM) supports energy assessments for micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs), aiming to improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon footprints. IIT Ropar’s project team includes four professors from different domains, a BEE Certified Energy Auditor and Energy Assessment Engineers.

How to Prepare and Email the Application

Complete the application using Appendix 1, prepare the enclosures listed below and combine them into one PDF. Email that file to mani@iitrpr.ac.in, addressed to Dr. Manigandan, by 15 November 2026. Appendix 1 asks applicants to provide the following information:

• Personal and contact details: name, complete correspondence address, email address and contact number.
• Gender, date of birth, marital status, category, nationality and differently abled status.
• Academic records for 10th, 12th, BE/B.Tech, ME/M.Tech and PhD, as applicable: subject, institute/board/university, passing year and marks, percentage or CGPA.
• Employment history in chronological order, showing each position, institute or industry, start and end dates, and pay scale.
• Details of professional recognition, including awards, prizes, certificates and fellowships received.
• A photograph and the applicant’s signed declaration, including the place and date.

Vacancy, Pay and Preferred Qualification Routes

The qualifications are described as preferred qualifications. Both routes include BEE energy manager certification, but differ in the higher degree, disciplines and academic records to which the marks condition applies:

• ME/M.Tech route: BEE certified energy manager with ME/M.Tech in Electrical, Mechanical, Chemical, Energy or Instrumentation. The bachelor’s programme must have at least 60% marks or 6.0 CGPA; for SC/ST candidates, the stated threshold is 55% marks or 5.5 CGPA.
• PhD route: BEE certified energy manager with PhD in Electrical, Mechanical, Chemical Engineering or another allied engineering discipline. Both the bachelor’s and master’s programmes must meet the threshold of 60% marks or 6.0 CGPA, reduced to 55% marks or 5.5 CGPA for SC/ST candidates.
• Relevant experience preferred: 3–6 years for postgraduate candidates and 0–3 years for PhD candidates.
• Engagement period: one year initially, extendable later. Remuneration is stated as consolidated monthly pay.

The key distinction is that the ME/M.Tech route specifies the bachelor’s marks threshold, while the PhD route applies it to both bachelor’s and master’s degrees. As general preparation guidance, compare your records against the relevant route before completing the form, and retain the original percentage or CGPA accurately.

Energy Manager Duties: Technical Work and Coordination

• Coordinate the Assessment team’s overall activities and maintain liaison with the Hub Head.
• Identify potential customers within the assigned region or according to the Hub Head’s directions.
• Keep customer commitments on schedule before and after energy assessments.
• Provide reports to the Hub according to its requirements.

The technical work covers walk-throughs and detailed energy assessments of process industries in the MSME category. The Energy Manager will prepare assessment reports recommending customised energy conservation measures and guide industries in implementing them. Applicants should therefore understand the role’s full scope: it includes assessment, reporting, implementation guidance and coordination with the team and customers.

Documents to Include in the Single PDF

• A one-page cover letter explaining your background and its relevance to carrying out the project.
• The completed application containing the information requested in Appendix 1.
• Soft copies of all degree certificates.

Combine these three components into one PDF for submission. As general practical guidance, open the final file before emailing it, confirm that every page is readable and check that the signed declaration is included. This helps avoid incomplete attachments or accidentally sending only the application form.

Shortlisting and Online Interview

Shortlisted candidates will be called for an online interview. Interview details will be communicated one week before the finalised interview date. As general preparation guidance, keep the email address and contact number entered in the application accessible, and prepare to explain how your qualifications and experience relate to the listed project duties.

Declaration and Engagement Conditions

• Appendix 1 includes a declaration concerning the accuracy of material information. Concealment or distortion can lead to summary termination of the engagement without notice. Check dates, qualifications and experience entries carefully before signing.
• The stated duration is one year, with provision for extension later. An extension is not stated as automatic; applicants should distinguish the initial engagement period from the possibility of continued engagement.
