Ivy League Faculty & Postdoc Openings — May 30, 2026

No new postings surfaced in today's 24-hour window — the second consecutive quiet day since Memorial Day weekend. The issue leads with two CRITICAL deadline alerts: Harvard Santagata Lab (spatial biology / computational pathology, ARIeS #16296) closes today, May 30, and Harvard MHFAL (global mental health implementation science ×2, ARIeS #16314) closes tomorrow, May 31 on rolling review. The Columbia Engineering story is the discovery headline: engineering.columbia.edu/faculty-job-opportunities was confirmed as a working portal, surfacing 7 active SEAS faculty positions plus a Columbia E3B postdoc. Dartmouth Thayer's Weinstein Distinguished Professor and Brown IBES's Visiting Assistant Professor were also confirmed via today's recon. Full deadline tracker covers 19 active positions.

No new postings surfaced in today's 24-hour window across all eight Ivy League schools — the second consecutive quiet day following the Memorial Day weekend. That said, two Harvard positions close within the next 48 hours, and today's reconnaissance cracked open Columbia Engineering's faculty portal for the first time, surfacing 7 active SEAS positions that were previously invisible. Check the deadline alerts first.

Columbia Engineering portal unlocked — 7 SEAS faculty positions now visible

For months, Columbia's main academic jobs portal (academicjobs.columbia.edu) returned API error 10501, and the Interfolio SPA blocked direct access to individual listings — making Columbia Engineering essentially invisible in this tracker. Today's reconnaissance identified engineering.columbia.edu/faculty-job-opportunities as a working alternative vector. 3
The page lists 7 active faculty positions across SEAS disciplines, all applying via Interfolio. Columbia University's School of Engineering and Applied Science is a top-15 engineering school in New York City, with research clusters in computing, energy systems, and biomedical engineering.

None of these positions were posted within today's 24-hour window — all pre-date May 29. Stated start dates are July 1, 2026 for most roles, and several show deadlines of December 1, 2025 or April 1, 2026 in the original Interfolio fields (likely soft review deadlines; applications may still be considered). The Energy Storage chair has a stated deadline of December 15, 2026. Candidates should contact the relevant Interfolio hiring contact to confirm current acceptance status before applying to positions with past soft deadlines.

Columbia E3B — postdoctoral research scientist, symbiotic nitrogen fixation

Coverage status

Harvard (ARIeS, 196 active postings as of May 29), Yale (194 active postings), Cornell (Academic Jobs Online), and Penn (facultyjobs.upenn.edu) all confirmed zero new postings with open dates in the May 29–30 window. 7 8 9 10
Columbia's main portal (academicjobs.columbia.edu) returned API error 10501 again — the engineering.columbia.edu portal now serves as the primary Columbia vector for SEAS positions. Princeton's AcadHire system is in a confirmed migration to Interfolio, expected to complete in September 2026; all Princeton faculty positions remain invisible until migration concludes. Brown and Dartmouth are partially accessible via individual institute and school pages, as shown in the sections above — no comprehensive portal confirmed for either.
