I design and deploy production-grade AI systems: from data pipelines to scalable LLM applications. With 7+ years in ML/AI, I specialize in LLM systems, RAG architectures, and MLOps, helping teams move from prototype to reliable, scalable AI in production. My focus is not just building models but ensuring they perform under real-world constraints: latency, cost, hallucination control, and continuous improvement. What I build -End-to-end ML pipelines: ingestion, training, deployment, monitoring -RAG systems with proper evaluation harnesses (retrieval quality, regression catching) -LLM observability: prompt versioning, tracing, feedback loops -Scalable inference (real-time and batch) with GPU optimization -CI/CD for ML with MLflow, Airflow, automated retraining -AI agents with guardrails and reliable tool use Selected results -Fraud detection pipeline (real-time inference) โ†’ ~$890K in losses prevented -Forecasting system using ensemble models โ†’ 31% accuracy lift over baseline -Multiple LLM products running in production under client SLAs -$3M+ in measurable business impact across deployments (happy to walk through specifics on a call) Stack -Languages/frameworks: Python, FastAPI -LLMs: OpenAI, Anthropic, HuggingFace, LangChain, LlamaIndex -Vector DBs: Pinecone, Weaviate, ChromaDB, FAISS -Infra: AWS, Docker, Supabase, MLflow, Airflow How I work -Replies in 0โ€“4 hours on business days -Production-grade code with tests and docs, not throwaway notebooks -Clear scope, direct communication, focused on business outcomes -Revenue, automation, speed-to-market โ€” that's the scoreboard Let's turn your AI idea into a working product.

I build RAG pipelines and LLM-powered applications that actually ship. My recent work includes a production-grade hybrid retrieval system (BM25 + FAISS + Ollama) deployed for a logistics company, significantly reducing their document lookup time across a large knowledge base. Here's what I typically build for clients: โ€” Multi-agent systems using LangGraph and LangChain, handling complex, multi-step reasoning and task orchestration โ€” RAG pipelines with hybrid retrieval (dense + sparse), local LLMs via Ollama, and vector stores like ChromaDB and FAISS โ€” Computer Vision applications for object detection, classification, and domain-specific analysis โ€” AI-powered web apps with React or Next.js frontends and Flask/Python backends โ€” Workflow automation connecting LLMs to external APIs, tools, and data sources via N8N or custom integration I care about systems that are maintainable, explainable, and ready for real users โ€” not just ones that pass a demo. 100% Job Success ยท Top Rated on Upwork BSc Computer Science โ€” PUCIT CS50's Introduction to AI with Python (HarvardX) ยท Python for Data Science (Udemy)

How to Hire Top Julia Developers

What is a Julia developer?

A high-level, high-performance, and dynamic programming option, Julia is a general-purpose, object-oriented language that can be used for numerical analysis and computational science. Julia developers are adept at using the language to build applications related to time-series analytics as well as risk calculations.

How do you hire a Julia developer?

You can source Julia developer talent on Upwork by following these three steps:

  • Write a project description. Youโ€™ll want to determine your scope of work and the skills and requirements you are looking for in a Julia developer.
  • Post it on Upwork. Once youโ€™ve written a project description, post it to Upwork. Simply follow the prompts to help you input the information you collected to scope out your project.
  • Shortlist and interview Julia developers. Once the proposals start coming in, create a shortlist of the professionals you want to interview. 

Of these three steps, your project description is where you will determine your scope of work and the specific type of Julia developer you need to complete your project.

How much does it cost to hire a Julia developer?

Rates can vary due to many factors, including expertise and experience, location, and market conditions.

  • An experienced Julia developer may command higher fees but also work faster, have more-specialized areas of expertise, and deliver higher-quality work.
  • A contractor who is still in the process of building a client base may price their Julia development services more competitively. 

Which one is right for you will depend on the specifics of your project. 

How do you write a Julia developer job post?

Your job post is your chance to describe your project scope, budget, and talent needs. Although you donโ€™t need a full job description as you would when hiring an employee, aim to provide enough detail for a contractor to know if theyโ€™re the right fit for the project.

Job post title

Create a simple title that describes exactly what youโ€™re looking for. The idea is to target the keywords that your ideal candidate is likely to type into a job search bar to find your project. Here are some sample Julia developer job post titles:

  • Data scientist with Julia background needed for analytics work
  • Risk calculation program needed for insurance company
  • Looking for Julia programmer to lead time-series analytics program

Project description

An effective Julia developer job post should include: 

  • Scope of work: From record and replay debugging to incorporating linear algebra solutions, list all the deliverables youโ€™ll need. 
  • Project length: Your job post should indicate whether this is a smaller or larger project. 
  • Background: If you prefer experience with certain industries, deliverables, or environments, mention this here. 
  • Budget: Set a budget and note your preference for hourly rates vs. fixed-price contracts.

Julia developer job responsibilities

Here are some examples of Julia developer job responsibilities:

  • Manage HPC ecosystem covering machine learning in Julia
  • Develop various scientific domains and visualization for insurance company
  • Utilize Julia implementation language for building new global climate model

Julia developer job requirements and qualifications

Be sure to include any requirements and qualifications youโ€™re looking for in Julia developer. Here are some examples:

  • Problem-solving skills and deep intellectual curiosity 
  • Strong coding skills in Julia and other object-oriented languages
  • Minimum Bachelorโ€™s degree in computer science or computer engineering
