SUMMARY

One of Ansys’ newest products, Discovery, is a unique real-time easy-to-use simulation tool that will make engineering simulation as pervasive as Excel. Some analysts have called it “one of the biggest breakthroughs in design and engineering technology in the last ten years.” Come and join the team that will transform how the products of tomorrow are engineered.
The Live Technologies team seeks a software professional who will contribute to the development of our products and supporting systems.

Ansys is the world leader in engineering simulation. Up to 80% of the cost of a product’s development is determined by the decisions you make early in the design process, and Ansys helps its customers reduce this cost with physical simulation tools to make better decisions quicker. Customers use Ansys simulation products to digitally explore design concepts and test critical design choices early in the product life cycle.
