Description
About Grafton Sciences We’re building AI systems with general physical ability, the capacity to experiment, engineer, or manufacture anything. We believe achieving this is a key step toward building superintelligence. With deep technical roots and real-world progress at scale (for example, a $42 million NIH program), we’re pushing the frontier of physical AI. Joining us means inventing from first principles, owning real systems end to end, and helping build a capability the world has never had before. About the Role We’re seeking a Chief Business Officer to lead the company’s commercial, partnership, and capital efforts.

Responsibilities • Build and expand strategic partnerships with large companies across manufacturing, mobility, logistics, and advanced technology. • Lead external engagement with investors, advising on capital strategy and preparation. • Own commercial development, including early customer programs and business growth. • Oversee business operations, finance, legal, and contracting processes as the company scales. • Operate as a generalist and support any mission-critical business needs in a fast-moving environment. Qualifications • Strong network across industry and investment communities. • Proven ability to lead commercial or strategic functions at high-growth or frontier-tech companies. • Experience managing partnerships, customer programs, or strategic initiatives with senior stakeholders. • Strong instincts across finance, operations, and organizational leadership. • High-agency operator comfortable owning broad responsibilities end to end. Above all, we look for candidates who can demonstrate world-class excellence. Compensation We offer competitive salary, meaningful equity, and benefits.
