Careers at Praman

Praman employs 86 scientists and support staff in Andheri East. We hire people who are uncomfortable signing something they have not checked, and then we give them the time to check it.

Why here

Working at Praman

Testing laboratories have a reputation for burning out young analysts on volume. We have built the opposite deliberately, because rushed analysis is how a laboratory loses its accreditation and its reason to exist.

  • Realistic batch loads. Capacity planning is based on validated throughput, not on what the sales calendar hopes for.
  • Documented training paths. Method-by-method authorisation with a named mentor and a written competence record you take with you.
  • Instrument time. Analysts are trained across platforms rather than parked on one bench for five years.
  • Sponsored certification. Internal auditor and method-specific training funded, with study leave for examinations.
  • The right to refuse. Any analyst may refuse to release a result they are not confident in, without needing to justify it to commercial staff.
  • Six-day week, honest hours. Monday to Saturday with a defined shift; overtime is compensated, not assumed.

Our hiring process

Application review

Every application is read by a technical manager, not filtered by keyword. You hear back either way within ten days.

Technical conversation

Forty-five minutes on the chemistry or microbiology you actually know. We are looking for reasoning, not recall.

Bench assessment

For analyst roles, a short practical exercise in the laboratory. Paid, and scheduled to suit your current job.

Offer

Written offer with the band, the shift and the training plan stated upfront. No verbal promises.
