Chief Architect – Robotics and Embodied AI

The Chief Architect of Centre of Excellence(CoE) for Robotics and Embodied AI will lead DSU’s efforts to build intelligent humanoid and autonomous robotic systems powered by large-scale learning and reasoning. This role focuses on integrating reinforcement learning, sim-to-real transfer, perception, and cognition to create robots capable of operating in complex, real-world environments.

The CoE will develop Large Action Models (LAMs), reasoning-driven control systems, and human-robot interaction frameworks, positioning DSU at the forefront of embodied intelligence research. The Chief Architect will oversee massive simulation pipelines, real-world robotic deployments, and interdisciplinary collaboration across AI, mechanical systems, and cognitive science.

This role also plays a key part in building India’s sovereign robotics capabilities by partnering with industry, nurturing startups, and translating research breakthroughs into deployable robotic platforms.
