Daniel Lee’s Experience

• Senior Account Manager

  ANSYS Inc

  (Public Company; 501-1000 employees; Aviation & Aerospace industry)

  January 2002 — March 2008 (6 years 3 months)

  Manage multiple and diverse Aerospace and Department of Defense accounts. The main objective of this position is to efficiently and effectively meet client computational fluid dynamics/simulation needs including training, consulting and software. This involves meeting with engineers and upper level management, presenting solutions to identified needs, and negotiating contracts. Performance targets relate to the retention and growth of existing customers and identification and expansion to new customers.

• Consulting Engineer

  Fluent Inc

  (Public Company; 501-1000 employees; Aviation & Aerospace industry)

  December 1999 — January 2002 (2 years 2 months)

  Responsible for assisting clients in the use of Fluent CFD software to design and analyze Aerospace and Marine thermal/fluid systems. Specialized in the simulation of the two phase turbulent reacting flows found within propulsion systems such as gas turbine engines. Assisted development team in the incorporation of advanced spray and combustion models applicable to internal combustion engines. Responsible for training customers in both fundamentals and advanced topics in computational fluid dynamics (turbulence, multiphase flows, user defined subroutines).

• Engineer

  Honeywell Inc

  (Public Company; 1001-5000 employees; Renewables & Environment industry)

  June 1994 — June 1996 (2 years 1 month)

  Engineered energy and controls retrofits for commercial buildings and power plants. In charge of overseeing the complete process from the design layout stage to installation. Responsibilities included designing the system layout, selecting equipment, and generating system software.
