Caelynx is continuing its seven-year-long growth streak thanks to organic expansion of its two traditional lines of business (staffing and services) and the addition of a new unit, software sales.
The Ann Abor-based company is a computer-aided engineering firm that specializes in consulting services in the aerospace, automotive, defense, energy, life science and consumer product industries. It recently received a Fast Track growth award
Ann Arbor SPARK Four-Year FastTrack award for recording four years of annual growth of at least 20 percent.
"Software will continue to play a more important role in our growth," says Hans Steiner, director of business development for
Caelynx.
The 7-year-old firm has has hired three people over the last year, expanding its staff to 22 employees and the occasional summer intern. Those new hires have included two engineers and one sales rep.
Also helping boost Caelynx's growth is its diversification of its clientele. It has gone from primarily automotive, which still plays an important role in the company's bottom line, to have customers in the life sciences and medical devices industry.
