Post-doctoral position in collective intelligence in human-AI systems

We seek to hire a post-doctoral fellow with a background in computer science, organizational behavior, human-computer interaction or related disciplines to collaborate on on-going research projects on how collective intelligence arises across scales (within AI models, between AI agents) and substrates (artificial and human). This includes multi-agent AI systems, mechanistic interpretability, and human-AI interaction. Intended start is Spring/Summer 2026. Successful candidates will work with Christoph Riedl and other faculty at the D’Amore-McKim School of Business at Northeastern University in Boston. In our previous work, we have explored how multi-agent AI systems develop goal alignment with ToM prompting, how the presence of AI agents may affect team communication, and how AI interventions could increase collective intelligence of groups (for more background see: http://christophriedl.net/ and https://damore-mckim.northeastern.edu/). We expect candidates to help design and execute studies (online/lab/field), lead data analysis, and write papers. Candidates will be expected to work on a combination of their own research and collaborative projects within the lab. Applications should include proposals of research ideas that fit this theme in their cover letter.

To apply send email with subject "POSTDOC 2026" to [email protected], including a CV, cover letter outlining interests and experience, and two letters of reference (or names of letter writers we can reach out to). Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis until the position(s) are filled.
