Archimedis Digital expands AI Centre of Excellence in Tiruchirappalli

Archimedis Digital, a life sciences-focused IT services company, has announced a significant expansion of its AI-led capabilities with the scaling of its AI Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, alongside an ambitious plan to double its workforce over the next 12 months.

This strategic move underscores the company’s focus on building deep AI expertise tailored to the life sciences sector, even as global demand shifts toward intelligent, data-driven systems across pharma, biotech, and medical devices.

The Tiruchirappalli-based AI CoE has been established as a dedicated hub for artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data science innovation, supporting the development of next-generation digital platforms and AI-led solutions for global clients.

The centre is already witnessing rapid scale-up, with a strong pipeline of AI-driven projects across pharmacovigilance, regulatory compliance, and digital transformation initiatives in life sciences.

Archimedis Digital currently operates with a workforce of approximately 250–300 employees, with a majority based in Chennai and a fast-growing team in Tiruchirappalli. The company plans to double its headcount within the next year, with hiring heavily skewed toward AI and data-centric roles. Notably, around 50% of new hires will bring expertise in AI, machine learning, and data science, while the remaining workforce will strengthen domain capabilities across life sciences and core engineering.

The company is actively tapping into high-potential talent pools beyond traditional metros, focusing on candidates from diverse socio-economic backgrounds and investing in structured training to build specialised capabilities.
