The National Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasting (NCMRWF) is an advanced Weather and Climate Modelling center under the Ministry of Earth Sciences. The mission of the Centre is to continuously develop advanced numerical weather prediction systems with increased reliability and accuracy over India and neighboring regions through research, development, and demonstration of new and novel applications, maintaining the highest level of knowledge, skills, and technical bases, besides the advanced technical knowledge of numerical modeling and data assimilation for weather and climate. NCMRWF also has advanced infrastructural facilities like 8.24 & 2.8 Peta Flops, High-Performance Computing Systems (HPCS), and state-of-the-art networking and storage infrastructures. NCMRWF is doubling as BIMSTEC Centre for Weather and Climate (BCWC), where numerical modelling of weather & climate, data assimilation, development of applications, and skill development for BIMSTEC countries are undertaken.

NCMRWF is looking for eligible candidates to fill up various project posts under its four projects: (a) Numerical Modelling of Weather and Climate (NMWC), (b) BIMSTEC Centre for Weather and Climate (BCWC), (c) National Monsoon Mission (NMM) and (d) High-Performance Computing (HPC) to carry out research, and development work on data assimilation and processing, remote sensing data application and utilization, numerical modeling of atmosphere, land, and ocean, coupled modeling, ensemble prediction system, diagnostic and validation of model, development of model-based applications. The posts are purely contractual, extendable maximum up to March 2026, on a year-to-year basis, based on the candidate's satisfactory performance at the end of each financial year. All positions are for Indian nationals only.

The details of posts to be filled are given below. Interested candidates may apply online (https://vacancies.incois.gov.in/jobs/ncmrwf0325/home.jsp). Last Date for submission of online application: within 21 days of the date of publication of this advertisement in Employment News.
