About the role

Cornell University's School of Operations Research and Information Engineering (ORIE) seeks to fill one open-rank tenure-track faculty position for its Ithaca campus. We are particularly interested in candidates who study financial engineering, while advancing modern AI tools to have impact, both in theory and practice. We also welcome exceptional applicants in all research areas, noting ORIE's long term interest in building strength in discrete optimization. Requisite is a strong interest in the broad mission of the School, exceptional potential for leadership in research and education, an ability and willingness to teach at all levels of the program, and a PhD in operations research, mathematics, statistics, or a related field by the start of the appointment. Salary will be appropriate to qualifications and engineering school norms. Cornell ORIE is a diverse group of high-quality researchers and educators interested in probability, optimization, statistics, machine learning, simulation, game theory, and a wide array of applications such as health care, e-commerce, supply chains, scheduling, manufacturing, transportation systems, financial engineering, service systems and network science. We value mathematical and technical depth and innovation, and experience with applications and practice. Ideal candidates will have correspondingly broad training and interests. A complete application should include a cover letter, CV, statements of teaching and research interests, sample publications, at least three reference letters, and, for applicants who received their PhDs after September 1, 2022, a doctoral transcript.

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.
