At Alice & Bob, we are building the first universal, fault-tolerant quantum computer that can solve the world's hardest problems using superconducting cat qubits.
Cat qubits have the astonishing ability to autonomously suppress a certain type of error, and a significantly reduced hardware overhead compared to other technologies. This efficient technology makes us a leader in the race towards a fault-tolerant quantum computer.
We have raised 30 million EUR of funding and are currently over 100 employees at our main facilities in Paris. Among us are physicists, engineers, PhD students and experienced business professionals, all working together to reach our ambitious goal. If you want to challenge yourself and participate in this race, apply today.
Alice & Bob is conducting quantum experimentations on complex hardware chips that are controlled and monitored using Microwave signals in the 5G band.
