Computer mathematician

Job Title: Computational Scenario & Algorithm Engineer (m/f/d) – Real Estate 

Optimization 

Reference ID: IRIS-KHI-ALGO-05 

Location: Karachi Hub, Pakistan (DHA Phase 1 / Phase 2) 

Contract Type: Full-time 

Organization: IRIS – Institut für Resilienz, Innovation und Nachhaltigkeit 

Application Channel: (Subject: Application IRIS-KHI-ALGO-05 – [Your Name]) 

About the Organization 

The IRIS – Institut für Resilienz, Innovation und Nachhaltigkeit conducts scientific and applied research into algorithmic decision-making, automated site feasibility, and sustainable structural optimization. We combine spatial constraints, regulatory boundaries, and construction metrics to computationally model future-proof development scenarios. 

Role Overview 

As a Computational Algorithm Engineer, you will develop mathematical models and algorithmic scripts that simulate alternative building layouts, floor area ratios (BGF/BRI), and economic optimization scenarios for land parcels. 

Key Responsibilities 

• Develop computational logic to simulate building massing, setback constraints, and maximum buildable volumes based on parcel geometries. 
• Build mathematical evaluation models for multivariate scenario comparisons (e.g., Best-Case vs. Middle-Case commercial vs. mixed-use developments). 
• Interlink spatial building volumes with structured construction cost indices (German DIN 276 cost groups) to generate dynamic cost models. 
• Create parameter scripts and automated reporting outputs for feasibility analysis. 
• Collaborate closely with BIM modelers, data engineers, and research directors. 

Requirements & Qualifications 

• Degree in Computational Design, Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, Computational Engineering, or Architecture with an intensive programming focus. 
• Strong proficiency in Python, C#, or TypeScript; familiarity with computational geometry libraries or parametric modeling (Grasshopper/Rhino.Compute) is highly advantageous. 
• Solid mathematical foundations in optimization algorithms, geometry processing, and multivariate numerical analysis. 
• Ability to translate architectural planning regulations into structured code constraints. 
• Fluent written and verbal communication in English. 

What We Offer & Career Pathways 

• Compensation: Top-tier local remuneration reflecting algorithmic and computational expertise. 
• Modern Work Hub: Reliable, modern, air-conditioned workspace in DHA Karachi with high-speed fiber infrastructure and power backup. 
• Sustainable Career Track: Clear promotion tracks into Algorithm Lead or Scientific Computing Lead in Karachi, with ongoing exposure to European construction standards, research publications, and advanced modeling systems. 
• The International Research Track (§ 18d AufenthG): Outstanding candidates demonstrating mathematical rigor and successful delivery over 3–6 months can qualify for direct transfer to Germany as a Research Associate under § 18d AufenthG, including dedicated administrative assistance, visa handling, and housing / accommodation support on-site.
