About the role

The successful candidate will unite strengths across Electrical & Computer Engineering and Mechanical Engineering, lead a world-class program, and advance interdisciplinary initiatives with BU centers. The ideal applicant will hold a PhD, demonstrate a track record of externally funded research, and excel in teaching and mentoring senior faculty.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
