Ayush Patel is Co-Founder of Osseus (YC S26), the intelligent development platform for robotics that makes robot design agentic and compresses the hardware iteration cycle.

Ayush earned an MEng in Computer Science from Imperial College London and completed two internships at Apple, where he built an agentic QA system.

Ayush brings a rare blend of elite engineering education and hands-on industry experience, having developed AI-driven systems at one of the world's most demanding technology companies.

At Osseus, Ayush and co-founder Anish Mariathasan are backed by Y Combinator (S26) and are building a platform that plugs into tools like CAD, ECAD, GitHub, and Jira to create a live dependency graph of an entire robot stack.

Osseus addresses a critical industry pain point where a single requirements error discovered during integration can cost up to 78x more to fix than one caught upfront, with the platform automating cross-domain impact tracing and fix proposals across mechanical, electrical, and software layers.
