PITTSBURGH, Feb. 20, 2024 — (PRNewswire) — Ansys (NASDAQ: ANSS) announced today that finance veteran Rachel Pyles will become the company's new chief financial officer, effective February 22, 2024.

"Ansys is an exceptional company with a strong track record thanks to our deep and broad product portfolio and our longstanding customer relationships," Pyles said.
