Sandbox AQ is harnessing the exponential power of AI + Quantum Technology -- AQ. The inspiration for Sandbox AQ and some of the team originated at Alphabet Inc. in 2016, becoming an independent entity in 2022. Our mission is to develop commercial products for telecom, financial services, healthcare, federal government, computer security and other computationally-intensive sectors.

Our team’s unique approach enables cross-pollination across a diverse range of fields, from physics, computer science, neuroscience, mathematics, cryptography, natural sciences and more!

Our success comes from coalescing diverse talent to create an environment where experimental thinking and collaboration yield breakthrough physics + AI solutions. Join a culture where thought leadership, diverse talent, employee engagement, and technological impact will create the next tech uproar.

We are deeply committed to education as a means to advance quantum solutions and computing initiatives. We invest in future talent through internship programs, research papers, developer tools, textbooks, educational talks/events and partnerships with universities/talent hubs to attract multi-disciplinary talent. Our hope is to inspire people from all walks of life to be prepared for the quantum era and encourage a path in STEM.
