DKI APCSS seeks qualified candidates at the Associate Professor or Professor level specializing in Alliance Management, Coalition Integration, and Regional Security Architecture to join the Department of Allies and Partners. The Center welcomes applications from both established scholar-practitioners and exceptional early-career professionals. The successful candidate's academic rank and salary will be determined based on education, professional experience, scholarly record, teaching and facilitation experience, subject-matter expertise, leadership, and demonstrated capacity to contribute to the DKI APCSS mission. The successful candidate will educate civilian and military security practitioners on how alliances and partnerships generate greater capability, interoperability, and collective action in the Indo-Pacific. The position focuses on how alliances and security partnerships are built, managed, adapted, and integrated to strengthen deterrence, distribute responsibilities, improve interoperability, and enable effective collective action. The position will examine bilateral alliances and increasingly important minilateral and multilateral security arrangements and how these relationships contribute to an evolving Indo-Pacific regional security architecture. Areas of particular interest include alliance management, coalition integration, burden sharing and role differentiation, interoperability, security cooperation, defense diplomacy, and the political and institutional challenges of collective defense and security.
