For those of you completing your PhD before September 1, 2024, I'd like to draw
your attention to the Distinguished Postdoctoral Fellow position at
Northeastern University's Khoury College of Computer Sciences.
One of the focus areas is Next-Generation Software, which includes programming
languages, software engineering, software for next-generation hardware, and
reliability and robustness of software.
Details and application link:

Candidates are strongly encouraged to apply by Feb 20 but applications received
after that will continue to be considered.
Compared to other postdoctoral positions, this fellowship provides an unusual
degree of independence. While the fellow will be part of a research group at
Khoury College — providing opportunities for collaboration and for initiating
new research projects — and will be assigned one or more faculty mentors, they
will not have a traditional postdoctoral advisor who directs their research.
This model allows researchers the independence, flexibility, and support
required to solve the fields’ most complex problems. The two-year postdoctoral
fellowship provides researchers with discretionary funds for travel and
research expenses, the opportunity to apply for external funding so they can
gain valuable experience with proposal writing, as well as close guidance from
one of Khoury’s faculty members who will prepare the fellows to apply for
tenure-track positions at the completion of the fellowship.
I'd be happy to answer any questions you may have about the position.
Best,
Amal
