An Era for Engineers

Creating a sustainable CAE ecosystem that empowers engineers to focus on JUST ENGINEERING

MISSION

A Cloud-Native
CAE Ecosystem

We believe that engineers should be able to focus on delivering competitive and sustainable products. Our mission is to get rid of all unnecessary distractions and limitations within that development process.

We provide a compelling and fast cloud-native CAE experience combining smart simulation technologies with scalable cloud HPC. Our simple browser-based software hides complexity while giving engineers access to data and tools from anywhere in the world.

All you need is a browser.
No installation, no maintenance – just engineering.

VALUES

The Dive Club

At Dive, we see ourselves as part of a club. We are here because we share a common vision and a unique set of values. Dive is a strong social bond, among customers, investors, fans - as well as our team.

Though passionate about our community, we also strive for championship-level performance involving excellent work and dedication, which fuels our ambition and creativity. Maintaining our dream team is an ongoing process with a clear goal: feed our passion, create value, and share successes.

It’s this atmosphere, just like the electrifying energy of a packed football stadium, that brings us together to achieve the unachievable.

The Dive Experience

Have you ever visited another country and felt pulled by a collective set of behaviors, but unable to put your finger on what it is?

At Dive, we strive to maintain a culture based on authenticity, knowledge, and trust. It’s a set of collective behaviors and beliefs that we act on every day. That’s the Dive Experience. Shared among our team members, and appreciated by our customers, investors, and partners.

FOUNDATION

Improving Engineering with Technology

In the spirit of pioneering German mechanical engineering, the co-founders Maik and Pierre saw the need to improve engineering by finding a solution for the time-consuming and tedious aspects of experiments.

The idea came to be while working together on “simulation laundry care”, a joint research project between BSH, BHT, HTW and TU Berlin. This is where they met Johannes, a future co-founder and skilled developer. Combining their skills in research, engineering and technology, they developed an in-house particle-based simulation code.

Later, Felix would complete the team of founders, with his experimental experience in Siemens gas turbines.

Achieving Ambitious Goals
with Strong Partners

Dive is a perfect example of why we are excited about the tech ecosystem in Germany. It continues to be great to see the team growing from technical experts with a lot of curiosity to extremely capable operators that take each challenge in stride (and kicking ass along the way).

Andreas Fischer, Founding Partner

We met the Dive team in 2019 and were impressed with their passion and the high market potential. Since then, it has been a pleasure to support them on their growth path in the engineering simulation SaaS space, creating significant value for their customers.

Dagmar Bottenbruch, General Partner, Segenia Capital

From our very first meeting at a StartUp Camp in 2018, I was impressed by the competence, drive and energy demonstrated by the founders. The growth, the team built and the product developed since then are extraordinary.

Dr. Holger Eisenlohr,
Former Siemens Senior Executive, Angel Investor

It was a pleasure to work with Dive on our true partnership. Since they were flagged by our team as high-potential startup and brought on the program, they have brought their product to the next level. It was great to learn from each other and grow together.

Zofia Przytocka,
Startup Business Lead, Microsoft for Startups

Dive Solutions is one of the most innovative and inspiring startups we have encountered in CHIC. Not only their highly innovative product but also their team-spirit and business-readiness prepare them for a promising future in the high-tech business – national and international.

Lars Hansen, Former Head of CHIC Innovations-Centrum

In a collaboration with Dive, I supervise the PhD project of a Dive engineer. The technical depth of the project, and Dive’s strong interest in advanced numerical methods and code correctness enable innovative research that is of both academic and industrial relevance.

Prof. Dr. sc. techn. Ivo Sbalzarini, TU Dresden

It was a great pleasure for me to support this group of creative high potentials in the start-up phase. And I am fascinated by the speed the development of Dive is progressing. Right from the beginning I realized: “These guys are special!”
