  In this work, we consider a hilltop version of the (supersymmetric) sneutrino
hybrid inflation where the right-handed sneutrino field plays the role of the
inflaton field. This model is a type III hilltop inflation that can produce a
spectral index $n_s=0.96$ which fits perfectly to experimental observations
without fine-tuning of parameters. We also briefly consider nonthermal
leptogenesis via the decay of the right-handed sneutrino inflaton field after
inflation.
