The Data Scientist job market in India in 2026
Data Scientist and ML Engineer roles are among the highest-paid categories in India in 2026: senior ML engineers at top product companies (Amazon, Flipkart, Razorpay) command ₹30-60L CTC, and AI Engineer (the post-LLM rebrand) roles at the senior level can reach ₹50-80L with specialization in foundation models, RAG, or production GenAI systems.
Entry-level (0-2 YoE) data scientist roles range ₹6-12L.
The distinction between Data Scientist (more research/analysis), ML Engineer (more productionization), and AI Engineer (LLM/foundation models) matters for screening: top startups in 2026 have stopped hiring generalist data scientists and only hire one of the three specializations.
Strong PyTorch and JAX skills outweigh TensorFlow in current job postings. Common screening questions include preferred ML framework, productionization experience, statistics background, and one-on-one technical interview around a domain ML problem.
ApplyCove can target multiple ML titles in parallel from a single session.
Salary range
₹6L–₹60L per annum depending on ML depth and domain experience
