The National Institute of Public Finance and Policy (NIPFP) is looking to hire two researchers interested in the technology policy field, on a full-time basis. In the Technology Policy group at NIPFP, we aspire to carry out cutting edge research and analysis, develop novel ideas and insights, and contribute to policy debates and development of public knowledge on relevant technology policy issues.
While we work on a broad array of issues in the overall landscape of technology policy, at present, our work focuses primarily on telecom policy, privacy, data governance, AI, open source, RegTech, distributed ledger and crypto-currencies, and competition policy.
