Get a newer thinkpad model. Screen are finally decent and the keyboard is still pretty good. They also finally changed their weird fn & cntrl key configuration(yes I know you could change it in the BIOS).
Depends on your budget but I'm a huge huge fan of Thinkpads. X1 Carbon is one of the most popular and frequently talked about laptops on this site but if you're looking for a slightly cheaper (but not cheap) alternative, I personally use the T14

Congrats on the new role. For a solid Windows laptop that’s not crazy expensive, check out the Dell XPS 13 or Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon, both are reliable, fast, and great for work. They’re lightweight too, which is nice if you're on the go.
