Kakinada (Andhra Pradesh) Govt Jobs 2026

Kakinada is a major port city and the headquarters of East Godavari district in Andhra Pradesh, strategically positioned on the Bay of Bengal and known as a hub for petrochemical, fertiliser, and offshore energy industries. Government recruitment in Kakinada is notably driven by Kakinada Port Trust, ONGC KG Basin operations, and the district’s growing Special Economic Zones (SEZs) that attract central PSU staffing. The Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission (APPSC) regularly notifies technical and administrative posts covering Kakinada candidates under its Group 1, Group 2, and engineering services recruitment. The presence of Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University Kakinada (JNTUK) generates faculty, non-teaching, and research recruitment for central and state-funded positions. Candidates from Kakinada actively pursue SSC JE, RRB JE, UPSC engineering services, and IBPS SO banking exams. All Kakinada government job updates — notifications, admit cards, cut-off marks, and results — are covered on this page.
Kakinada’s position as the de facto capital of the Godavari oil and gas economy gives it a unique PSU employment density for a non-metro city — with ONGC’s Rajahmundry Asset, Coromandel International (fertilisers), HPCL’s LPG bottling plant, and the Kakinada Anchorage Port together employing thousands of government and central PSU-paid workers. ONGC Rajahmundry Asset is the district’s flagship PSU employer, recruiting petroleum engineers, drilling engineers, geologists, and technical supervisors through ONGC’s national E2-E3 and apprenticeship recruitment mechanisms. Kakinada Port Trust conducts dock worker, engineer, and administrative officer recruitment for one of AP’s most active commodity ports. JNTUK (Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University Kakinada) faculty recruitment through UGC-linked state university channels is a significant academic sector employment source. The SEZ Management Authority at Kakinada SEZ generates customs, central excise (CBIC), and port authority compliance posts. APPSC Group 1 and engineering services exams attract strong participation from Kakinada’s large engineering college ecosystem. AP GENCO’s thermal and gas-based power station at Kakinada recruits electrical and mechanical engineers. NHM AP covers health staff for the district’s PHC and fishing community health network. SSC JE, RRB JE, and UPSC engineering services are the top central exam categories. Kakinada’s DRDO laboratory at the KG basin research facility and the Petroleum University campus at Kakinada generate occasional research associate and faculty vacancies, while the district’s ESIC Sub-Regional Office covering East Godavari’s industrial workforce adds a consistent medical and administrative employment layer for paramedical graduates.
