A holder of two issued patents and awarded Patents Forwards Awards in 2010 and 2014 by Dassault Systemes, Parvate has also been serving as a Member of the Board of Directors at the Open Design Alliance (ODA)—a non-profit organization dedicated to creating software development kits (SDKs) and libraries for easy development of engineering applications.
“Since SimScale’s inception, we’ve taken cloud-based simulation from an idea to a production-ready technology, being used by thousands of engineers for design projects ranging from electronic components over vehicles to tunnels and buildings,” said David Heiny, CEO and co-founder of SimScale. “With the fundamental technology in place, we’ll expand SimScale’s capabilities aggressively to further accelerate growth across industries and regions. Having build engineering software used by millions of engineers, Vajrang brings a unique wealth of experience to guide our engineering team on this path. I couldn’t be more excited about Vajrang joining the team in the next growth phase helping to realize SimScale’s vision.”
