Do you think of manufacturing as a game of chess? Rand Worldwide's technical product marketing Manager Krystian Link does. He sees the CFD and FEA experts, the designers, and the equipment in the shop as chess pieces, each with its own specialty, each abiding by its set of rules.

"A simulation engineer can do certain things well, comparable to a knight that moves in a certain direction. A rook moves differently. They're like program managers that can make big, impactful decisions, and have to be deployed differently. These pieces are always consistent, regardless of the product we make. Winning the game is launching the product right on time with quality, but how we get there changes every single time. I'll open the game differently, to see if I can do something better, more efficiently," he said.
