Software Engineer

About This Job

The Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB) has listed one contract-basis opening for the post of Software Engineer on the Punjab Job Portal, the Government of Punjab's centralized recruitment platform. The role is based in Lahore and sits within the Software Engineering job category, reflecting PITB's ongoing development of e-governance and public-sector digital systems. Applications must be submitted online only, through the specific job link published for this vacancy, and the last date to apply is 19 August 2026. Candidates interested in a hands-on development role within a government technology board should review the qualification requirements carefully before starting the application.

The post requires a Masters or Bachelors (Hons) degree of 16 years of education in Advanced Computing, Computer Engineering, Computer Sciences, Information Technology or Software Engineering. Beyond the academic requirement, the advertisement lists specific technical skills expected of candidates, namely ASP.NET, C# or VB.NET, .NET CORE, MS SQL Server, Angular, CSS, HTML and JavaScript, indicating that this is a full-stack or backend-focused development role built around the Microsoft technology stack combined with modern front-end frameworks. A minimum of 1 year of relevant experience is required. The eligible age range is 23 to 45 years, open to both male and female candidates, with Punjab domicile required per the portal's Dastak service reference; no separate age relaxation is stated in the source.

Interested candidates meeting the qualification, skills and experience criteria should apply through the online Software Engineer listing on the Punjab Job Portal before the 19 August 2026 deadline. The source page does not mention any application processing fee for this post. Likewise, no specific base salary or pay scale figure is displayed on the listing, as the PITB portal template generally does not publish pay details alongside its vacancy announcements. Applicants are advised to have their degree certificates, transcripts, CNIC and any proof of relevant development experience ready in scanned form, and to complete the online application accurately well ahead of the closing date to avoid missing the opportunity. Applicants who do not meet the stated qualification, experience or age criteria as of the closing date are unlikely to be shortlisted for the Software Engineer role, and all claimed academic and professional details will be subject to verification at a later stage of the recruitment process. Candidates are encouraged to ensure that the mobile number and email address registered on the portal remain active, since any shortlisting communication for the Software Engineer post is expected to be sent through these channels.
