Luffy AI is the foundation AI company at the forefront of the Physical AI revolution. Every motor, every drive, every system that moves, heats or reacts has run on control algorithms invented before the microchip. Spun out of the UK Atomic Energy Authority and based at Culham Campus in Oxford, we are a team of physicists, engineers and AI researchers working on the intelligence that will run the next hundred years – in every factory, every vehicle, every robot, every machine that does something real.
Where industrial processes gain agency.
Where every machine becomes intelligent.
Through partnerships with the industrial automation companies that build machines deployed across global industry. And through the semiconductor companies whose chips sit at the heart of those systems – and increasingly, at the heart of automotive, robotics and consumer electronics too.
You’ll be the first point of contact for inbound commercial interest – qualifying leads, understanding where they fit, and making sure the right things happen next. Working closely with marketing, you’ll also drive outbound activity – identifying target accounts and stakeholders and building campaigns.
Beyond the top of funnel, you’ll support the Luffy AI’s partner relationships day to day, working alongside the EVP Commercial to keep those conversations progressing.
The common thread is commercial rigour – knowing what a good opportunity looks like, nurturing it over time with discipline. Qualify inbound commercial interest – understanding the opportunity, where it fits in our go-to-market motion, and what the right next step is.
