RITES regularly runs regular-basis (non-contractual) recruitment for its highway and structural engineering verticals as it takes on infrastructure consultancy assignments for state and central highway authorities across India, distinguishing this drive from RITES's more common contract or deputation-based hiring for specialised project roles. Selected Engineering Professionals will work on RITES's highway design and structural engineering assignments, covering contract specification, highway geometric design, and structural engineering for road infrastructure projects. The RITES 2026 selection process consists of Document Scrutiny followed by a Written Test and Interview, with the Written Test tentatively scheduled for 25 October 2026. The salary for RITES Engineering Professionals 2026 ranges from ₹40,000 to ₹2,00,000 per month across the five post levels, on a regular-basis engagement. The RITES 2026 online application and fee payment window opened on 10 September 2026, and the last date is 05 October 2026. Application fee is ₹600 plus taxes for General/OBC candidates, and ₹300 plus taxes for EWS/SC/ST/PwD candidates.
