TurbineOne Moving HQ to Fairfax County

TurbineOne, a defense technology firm specializing in AI-powered machine learning software solutions, plans to relocate its headquarters from San Francisco to the Chantilly area of Fairfax County creating 22 new jobs through a $424,000 investment. As part of this relocation, TurbineOne will develop T1 Edgeworks, an innovative, experiential learning center designed to showcase the advanced capabilities and real-world applications of their technology.

“Virginia is a natural home for TurbineOne’s next chapter,” said Ian Kalin, CEO of TurbineOne. “The Commonwealth is a unique epicenter where the national security mission, technical talent, and operational community come together. As AI becomes central to modern defense, it has to work in conflict, even when communications are denied. Establishing our headquarters here and launching Edgeworks allows us to build and refine these capabilities alongside the people who rely on them most.”

Founded in 2021, TurbineOne is relocating its headquarters to Fairfax County, Virginia, as part of its continued growth supporting U.S. national security missions. The company develops artificial intelligence and machine learning software designed to operate in conflict on the frontlines, even without a network connection. Its platform enables military and national security users to find, decide, and act in real time to detect threats from sensor data, coordinate decisions across teams, and orchestrate autonomous or semi-autonomous missions in dynamic environments.

“We are thrilled to welcome TurbineOne to Fairfax County,” said Jeffrey C. McKay, Chairman of the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors. “The decision to locate their headquarters in Chantilly reflects the strength of our innovation ecosystem and its support for mission-critical technologies. We are especially excited about T1 Edgeworks, where real-world AI applications will come to life—strengthening innovation and reinforcing Fairfax County’s role as a home to purpose-driven companies that advance national security and emerging technologies. We appreciate the Governor’s strong partnership with Fairfax County to grow our economy.”

Through T1 Edgeworks, a new R&D experience lab in Chantilly, the company will provide an immersive environment for government and defense partners to test, refine, and operationalize edge-based AI capabilities.
