Open Positions

Call for nominations for Computer Society and other IEEE volunteer positions will be posted here and announced via social media. Opportunities will be posted throughout the year, so come back often to see what is available.

Let us know you’re interested by completing this form. Tell us about your areas of technical expertise, your volunteer interests, and we’ll do our best to get you connected!

For IEEE CS volunteers seeking to fill positions, you may post positions on the IEEE Volunteering website.

Publications

• Editor in Chief for journals and magazines | View open positions
• Peer reviewer for journals and magazines | Review articles for technical merit and provide constructive feedback as needed.
  • To volunteer for periodical publication review: Please update (or create) your author/reviewer account on the IEEE Computer Society ScholarOne portal (https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/cs-ieee). It is especially important to link to your ORCiD account and to indicate your areas of expertise with as many applicable keywords as possible (particularly those from the ACM Taxonomy dropdown list). These attributes will help the system match you (given the link with your own published work) with appropriate papers, and your name may appear in a list for Associate Editors as they search for qualified reviewers in the database.
  • To volunteer to review conference papers, identify the conference you are interested in from our selection of conferences, which you can search and find in our event calendar. Once you identify the conference, we encourage you to contact the committee directly to indicate your interest. Committee information is typically provided on the “Contact Us” section of the conference website.
