What are the Government jobs possible in Computer Engineering field in India?

our question needs to be elaborated a bit. If the opportunities being talked about are to be limited to main Central or State Government departments , opportunities may not be many. Very few departments like National Informatics center have some that too limited opportunities . Some of the departments may recruit a few engineering grads but only for a support role. Also the Government will consider a skill in IT /Computer Sc as non - core and prefer to out source . Government also recognises that their recruitment / career advancement policies are not very conducive to attract ,retain and nurture talent . Since Technology changes frequently and it is not easy for the government to make investments to keep pace with fast changing technologies , it would prefer to out-source .Government departments are not an ideal option for careers in tech related professions.But if the question extends to Public sector under takings or Banks or even government controlled Railways or Military services or Defence establishments or Space establishments , the opportunities are reasonably good( Indian Railways , ISRO , DRDO , Army,Air Force , Navy , BEL , ECIL , BHEL ,PSU banks etc) . Here again one has to remember that IT /Com Sc is not always part of their core business ,but of course it is a very important support process. With Digitisation and Internet of things gaining ground , IT/Com SC shall become core to many of these business lines . Here again Government controlled companies prefer to outsource IT related processes unless it becomes an essential part of their Product/service.Right now the bulk of the opportunities are in IT service sectors ( Companies like TCS,Infosys,Wipro ,Cognizant etc) . There is lot of automation creeping in these kinds of services , which is likely to affect the fresh employment potential or result in mid career lay offs . But if one keeps upgrading his skills , Core IT services are a better career option than a cosy government /PSU job. Of course some body could always say that there would be less stress and more job security with Government /PSUs even though you may not be contributing your best especially since you are in a non core role nor developing your self practically in your chosen field “
