Simulation and PLM consulting for aerospace, automotive, and defense engineering
DPS is a European-headquartered engineering consulting firm built around simulation and digital continuity for industrial product development. The tech stack reveals a heavy reliance on Dassault ecosystem tools (CATIA, SOLIDWORKS, SIMULIA, 3DEXPERIENCE, Abaqus) paired with custom software in Python and .NET — typical of firms embedding analysis into client design workflows rather than selling horizontal SaaS. Hiring has decelerated to just 2 roles in the last 30 days, and the mix skews heavily toward junior engineers and interns, suggesting either a stable consulting bench or constrained growth.
Founded in 1997, DPS provides consulting, methodology, training, and custom software development centered on simulation and PLM integration for complex mechanical and embedded systems. The firm serves aerospace, automotive, defense, rail, telecom, and energy sectors. DPS operates across Europe (Paris, Toulouse, Nantes), the USA (Detroit), and Japan (Tokyo). The company develops KARREN, a proprietary tool for collaborative system design, and acts as a reseller for Dassault Systèmes products. Active projects span simulation pipeline development, parametric modeling, and bespoke simulation aids for major industrial clients, reflecting a project-driven consulting model.
DPS primarily works with Dassault Systèmes products: CATIA, SOLIDWORKS, SIMULIA, 3DEXPERIENCE, and Abaqus. They also use CST Studio Suite, Python, C#, and .NET for custom development and integration work.
DPS is based in La Celle-Saint-Cloud, France, with additional offices in Paris, Toulouse, Nantes, Detroit (USA), and Tokyo (Japan).
