Position Summary
Indiana University Bloomington (IUB) invites applications for multiple, tenure-track faculty positions in the field of computer engineering. This search seeks applicants at the assistant professor rank to serve as a member of the Luddy School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering, and may hold appointments in any of its departments, including Informatics, Computer Science, or Intelligent Systems Engineering. These positions are part of a strategic initiative to launch and support our new Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering program.
We seek exceptional candidates whose research and teaching interests align with one or more of the following critical areas:

  • Computer Architecture – including In-/near-memory or in-/near-storage processing, circuit/technology impacts (e.g., 3D/chiplets/interposer/wafer-scale), quantum, superconducting, machine learning, edge computing, and security/privacy in computer architecture.
  • Digital Logic Design and VLSI – including ASIC/FPGA design for cyber-physical systems, System-on-Chip (SoC), multi-die architectures, accelerator-based computing, brain-inspired/quantum computing, emerging device technologies, low-power/reliable design, and secure hardware/software systems.
  • Operating Systems and Systems Software – including operating systems, file/storage systems, AI/ML systems, distributed/cloud/mobile systems, secure/reliable systems, big data, embedded systems, virtualization, networking, and complex system management/troubleshooting.
  • Analog and Mixed-Signal Electronics – including circuits for AI/ML workloads, analog circuits/data converters, RF/wireless/wireline systems, imagers, MEMS, medical/display circuits, power management, 2.5D/3D integrated circuits, and secure computing designs.

Successful applicants will be expected to develop an independent and externally funded research program, teach undergraduate and graduate courses in their area of expertise, and contribute to the continued growth and success of our computer engineering curriculum.

These 10‐month appointments would ideally start August 1, 2026, although an earlier or later start date is negotiable. Applications received by October 1, 2025, will receive full consideration, and applications will be accepted until the positions are filled.
