About

We founded Transform Computing, Inc. (XFR) to apply advanced math and bleeding-edge computers to the most pressing problems facing humanity, specifically the need to shift quickly to an energy grid powered by renewable generation and storage.  We bring expertise delivering state-of-the-art systems, software, applications, and math for mission-critical tasks with strict security requirements.

Our founders include:

Raouf Dridi, Chief
Technical Officer

Raouf is driven by his belief that computations can often be dramatically accelerated by casting them in a different and better form for the target computer and has applied that to AI and machine learning with compelling results.  Raouf earned a PhD in Math and CS, focusing on algebraic topology, at the University of Lille and then led efforts to map real-world problems to quantum computers while at the University of British Columbia, 1QBit, Carnegie Mellon University, and most recently led the Advanced Technology team at Quantum Computing Inc.

Steve Reinhardt,
CEO

Steve strives to connect the best of a new computing technology with a customer’s core needs, knowing that both technical and human factors must be aligned for a successful deployment.  He has led technical and project teams building scalable hardware/software systems, graph databases, and quantum-capable optimizers at Cray Research, SGI, Cray/YarcData, Interactive Supercomputing, D-Wave Systems, Quantum Computing Inc., and Quantum Machines.  Four systems for which Steve led development have won HPCwire Readers’/Editors’ Choice Awards and two of those each delivered more than $500M of revenue.
