Fifteen posts, three very different families of work, and one email address for all of them. PDA Jobs 2026, announced by the Pakistan Digital Authority in Daily Jang on 29 October 2026, bring together creative and media roles, programme delivery roles, and AI and engineering roles in a single Islamabad round. That mix is the interesting part, because most government style rounds lean one way, while this one hires a photographer and an MLOps engineer in the same advertisement. Salaries are described as market competitive across the board, which means the ad does not print a pay figure for any post, and the detailed job descriptions and eligibility criteria sit on the official PDA careers page rather than in the newspaper text.
The creative group covers PR Liaison, Photographer and Videographer, Graphic Designer, Content Writer, Research Assistant, and Social Media Manager and Digital Communications and Media Manager. The delivery group covers Director Program Delivery, Manager Program Delivery, Director Delivery Excellence, Manager Delivery Excellence, and Manager National Digital Alignment and Coordination. The engineering group covers Digital Solutions Specialist, AI Model Deployment Engineer, MLOps Engineer for AI Observability and Monitoring, and Agentic System Engineer. Each post carries its own Job ID from PDA-J0173 to PDA-J0187, and that ID is not decoration, since your email subject line must carry the Job ID and the position you are applying for.

Eligibility Criteria
Eligibility for each post lives on the PDA careers page, so read the description for your exact Job ID before you write your email. That step matters more here than in most rounds, because the newspaper ad lists post names and Job IDs without printing qualification or age rules. Government employees must submit a valid NOC. Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted for an interview, and no TA or DA will be provided for interviews. The application itself has a hard limit worth respecting, since your updated CV must run to a maximum of 4 pages, with a cover letter attached. For more engineering openings, see the Engineering Jobs archive on KomviPz.
How to Apply
- Open the PDA careers page at pda.gov.pk/careers and read the detailed description for your Job ID.
- Trim your CV to a maximum of 4 pages and write a cover letter for the specific post.
- Address your email to jobs@pda.gov.pk and put the Job ID and the position applied for in the subject line.
- Attach your CV and cover letter, and double check that the Job ID in the subject matches the post in your letter.
- Send the email before 13 November 2026, since the last date runs 15 days from the 29 October 2026 publication.
- Do not send any hard copy, since the ad states that no hard copies will be accepted, and keep a copy of your sent email for your record.
Important Notes
The most common mistake in an email round like this is a vague subject line, and PDA has told applicants exactly how to avoid it, by naming the Job ID and position in the subject. A second mistake is a long CV, since the 4 page cap is printed in the ad and a longer CV can count against you before anyone reads your experience. No application fee is mentioned in the advertisement, so treat any payment request tied to this round as a warning sign. The PDA office address for reference is People and Culture Manager, Pakistan Digital Authority, 4th Floor, 5-A Constitution Avenue, Sector F-5/1, Islamabad, but applications go by email only.
