Princeton University is seeking to hire AI Postdoctoral Research Fellows to join the Princeton Laboratory for Artificial Intelligence to conduct research focused on societal AI.

Postdoctoral Research Fellows will be part of a dedicated research community that includes leading faculty, research fellows, scientists, software engineers, postdocs, and graduate students. Fellows will have access to a state-of-the-art AI Lab GPU cluster to support large-scale experimentation and evaluation.

Postdoctoral Research Fellows will be appointed through the Princeton Laboratory for Artificial Intelligence (the AI Lab) and will receive a competitive salary, benefits, office space and equipment, dedicated compute resources, and annual research support.

Appointments will be made at the Postoctoral Research Associate rank.

Appointments are for one year with the possibility of renewal pending satisfactory performance and continued funding.

Princeton University places high value on in-person collaborations and interactions, and we expect selected candidates to participate in-person. The work location for this position is in-person on campus at Princeton University.

This position is subject to the University's background check policy

These positions are not eligible for sponsorship of an H-1B visa requiring consular processing; other visa sponsorships (including H-1B visas not requiring consular processing) may be available, as appropriate.

Ideal candidates will have demonstrated experience in “societal AI” especially as related to culture. We seek scholars working on AI as a "cultural technology" — including its role in disciplinary practice across the arts and humanities and in knowledge infrastructures — as well as those examining AI's broader societal effects – including on creative and cultural industries (literature, music, film, visual arts). A strong foundation in computational humanities or cultural analytics, combined with humanistic and interpretive approaches to AI systems, is expected.

Applicants must have a PhD.

Applicant must provide the following:

• Cover letter
