OUR TEAM
The people behind the numbers.
Engineers who spent years in the field before moving to the screen. The person you brief is the person who builds, checks and defends your model.
01 / WHO WE ARE
Pick a discipline. Meet the engineer.
Ryan N. Hildebrand
Chief Technology Officer
Reviews every model before it leaves the building. Nothing ships unchecked. Sets the methods, checks the assumptions, signs the report.
Sarah M. Ray
Head of Engineering
Turns your brief into a scoped, scheduled analysis plan, and keeps it on track. Your single point of contact from first call to final report.
Pelin Akçakoca
Team Lead · NVH & Dynamics
Finds the resonance before your test rig does. Modal, random vibration and shock, from mesh to fatigue life.
Micheal Burnett
Team Lead · Thermal & Multiphysics
Couples heat, flow and current until the physics agrees. When one solver isn't enough: thermal, electric and fluid, in one model.
PROFILEMANAGEMENT
Ryan N. Hildebrand
Chief Technology OfficerRyan came to simulation from the automotive test lab, where he learned that a model is only as good as its assumptions. Every analysis passes his desk before it leaves the building. He's happiest untangling a model that looks right but isn't.
PROFILEMANAGEMENT
Sarah M. Ray
Head of EngineeringSarah spent her early career on structural projects at a tier-1 supplier, where she learned to agree on acceptance criteria before running a single load case. She turns an open question into a scoped plan and stays your single point of contact from first call to final report.
PROFILENVH & DYNAMICS
Pelin Akçakoca
Team Lead · NVH & DynamicsPelin finds the resonance before your test rig does, from modal analysis through random vibration to fatigue life. She once traced a recurring bracket crack to a mode nobody had excited in test. She likes nothing more than a test and a simulation that disagree.
PROFILETHERMAL & MULTIPHYSICS
Micheal Burnett
Team Lead · Thermal & MultiphysicsMicheal couples heat, flow and current until the physics agree. He came from power electronics cooling, where one solver was never enough. Bring him in early, while the design can still change.
