ABOUT US
Rishihood
University
Rishihood
University (RU) has been established under The Haryana Private Universities
(Amendment) Act, 2020 and is empowered to award degree as specified in section
22 of UGC Act, 1956.
Rishihood
University is India’s first and only impact university. ‘Impact’ is the living
spirit of Rishihood. The purpose of education envisioned by the thought leaders
of our civilization and that which has motivated the founders to build
Rishihood University is beyond just awarding degrees and jobs. The purpose of
education is to achieve the highest potential in a learner i.e., Rishihood.
Rishihood University provides a unique mix of globally relevant education that
is rooted in Indian ideas, quality education that is affordable, and a
multi-disciplinary exposure with cutting edge skills of a specialist. To
achieve this outcome, education cannot be limited to within the classrooms. RU
is a fully residential campus where living and learning seamlessly integrate
throughout the day. RU faculty and learners have an active participation with
society, industry, researchers, entrepreneurs, and policy makers. This keeps
the learning at RU focused on solving the biggest challenges faced by humanity
and prepares our learners for the real world. It is time India builds
universities driven by a higher purpose, that have a strong committed board to
back it, that redefine the way education is imparted both within and outside
the classroom. Rishihood is a bold initiative to fulfil this idea.
Hence, we are looking for like-minded founding faculty members at Rishihood
University.

Someone once
taught you why a linked list beats an array in certain conditions, and
something clicked. That moment of clarity, when the why behind the code finally
lands, is exactly what we are trying to create at scale for every student who
walks through our doors. We need the person who can make that happen.
You will join Rishihood
as a Faculty with full teaching ownership of the Core Software Engineering
track. This is the bedrock of the programme. As you grow, you will take on
Track Lead responsibilities: defining curriculum direction, building the
faculty team, and connecting with industry to bring real problems into the
classroom. You will not be executing someone else's vision. You will be
building your own.
Requirements
Key
Responsibilities
- Teach DSA, OOP in C++, and Python
going deep on the why, not just the what
- Design labs where students implement
data structures from scratch and learn what efficiency means in practice
- Run monthly demo days and structured
critique sessions that build honest self-assessment
- Lead the competitive programming
cell, grooming students for benchmarks like ACM ICPC and GSoC
- Own the CS Foundations curriculum as
Track Lead, hire junior faculty, and set the academic bar for this track.
Job Specifications
· You should hold an MTech, PhD, or equivalent in a
relevant field. Beyond the degree, here is what we actually care about.
Technical Depth
· Expert level command over DSA: complexity analysis,
dynamic programming, and graph theory. You solve hard problems yourself, not
just teach them from a slide
· Deep C++ OOP: memory management, pointers, STL,
polymorphism, and the design patterns that separate understanding from
familiarity
· Strong Python fluency and solid grasp of Low Level
Design (LLD) and system design at an architectural level
The Person
· You treat teaching as a craft, take ownership
proactively, and are comfortable with structured critique of your students'
work and your own
· You have the patience for a student genuinely
struggling, and the honesty to push the one who is coasting
Good to Have
· Competitive coding background on Codeforces or
LeetCode (Guardian or Knight level), or past ACM ICPC participation
· Open source contributions to C++ or Python ecosystems;
industry experience as a Lead Developer or Software Architect
