Computational Design Developer & Data Analyst

We are looking for a Computational Design Developer with data analyst competence for our Dsearch team, as part of the Digital Matter division at White Arkitekter AB.

Founded in 2010, the Dsearch team has been involved in more than 100 architectural projects and R&D projects. Dsearch operates across all White offices and conducts commission-based computational development in collaboration with all architectural disciplines, as well as generic methods development to support our colleagues. We offer our services externally as part of the Digital Matter division.

Dsearch develops computational design methods in close relation to architectural projects of all scales, including products, interiors, buildings, landscape and urban design. A well-developed strategic framework allows a strong focus on innovation and project implementation in parallel. The central Dsearch team is linked to our different offices through a network of architects and structural engineers with special computational design expertise. All team members are engaged in international communities for computational design, and several have parallel academic engagement as researchers and lecturers. In these capacities our team have been part of the development of computational design as a subject matter at several schools of architecture in Sweden and abroad. Dsearch also leads a network within White Research Lab, the internal organization for practice-based research within White arkitekter.

Computational Design Developer & Data Analyst
