Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolLuke Humphrey is an HPC computational engineer at the UK Atomic Energy Authority, applying simulation-driven machine learning and surrogate modelling to accelerate fusion energy design and component optimisation. With eight years of experience and an MPhys in Physics and Astrophysics, he blends research software engineering, HPC, FEM/CFD and ML to deliver production-grade tools for international fusion projects. He leads projects in the Advanced Simulation Engineering Group, supervises placements, and contributes to recruitment, outreach and EDI—demonstrating a commitment to growing the next generation of technical talent. Comfortable moving between low-level performance work and higher-level experimental design, he has presented at international conferences and routinely translates complex physics into practical software. Based in the Vale of White Horse, he brings a rare combination of hands-on engineering, academic rigor, and community-focused leadership to the pursuit of sustainable, zero-carbon fusion power.
