Do I need to list a postdoc as a job on my ESTA?

They ask you for your current work environment. I bet you would claim your postdoc time as a job in your future CV, so why do you think you should not mention it? Name it student rather than work, if you have the option.

If you should have mentioned it and did not do it, and it comes out in an interview upon entering the USA, you can be send back and banned for deception. If you did not need to mention it but did, your landing interview might go: "So you now live in Israel." You answer with: "Yes, for a while as a student."
And the officer will not find anything wrong. Israel is not on the list of countries which give problems.

Never lie to an immigrant officer, not even in the automated online version.
