Samsung would enlist 1000 engineers from
premium institutes in India for its three research and development facilities
in India. The recruits will work on artificial intelligence, machine learning,
5G, and more new age domains.
"Samsung is extremely bullish on R&D
in India. We have been here for over 22 years. The three R&D centres in
India work on several cutting-edge
technologies," Samsung global senior vice-president and MD, Samsung
R&D Institute India Bengaluru, Dipesh Shah said.
The South Korean tech giant would hire the
talent from IITs, NITs, Delhi College of Engineering, BITS Pilani, Manipal
Institute of Technology and IIITs among others. Out of the 1000 engineers to be
recruited, 300 will be hired from 23 IITs across the country.
"We will be hiring around 1,000 engineers
from top engineering colleges this year across the three R&D centres in
India, of which over 300 will be from IITs. A majority of them will be hired
for domains such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, signal
processing, computer vision, mobile security and biometrics among others. There
is a large need for talent," he added.
Along with the traditional discipline of
computer science, Samsung would hire engineering graduates from streams such as
electrical engineering, mathematics and computing, applied mechanics, and
statistics, among others. The company hired 800 engineers last year for its
R&D facilities, out of which 300 were taken from IITs, and this year too
the number of engineers hired from IITs will be kept unchanged.
Samsung operates R&D facilities in Delhi,
Bengaluru, and Noida. The Delhi unit mostly works on high-end television and
other electronic products and company's homegrown mobile OS Tizen. The
Bengaluru centre deals with research in artificial intelligence, machine
learning, and the internet of things.
The Noida centre handles biometrics, mobile
software development, multimedia, and data security. Samsung has a total of 32
R&D centres across the world, along with three in India at Bengaluru, Noida
and Delhi.
