I help building owners, developers, and design teams close the gap between how a building is modeled and how it actually performs — combining building energy modeling with mechanical (MEP) design to reduce energy use, operating costs, and carbon impact. Most freelancers do either the energy model or the mechanical design. I do both, which means the two actually align — and you don't need to coordinate between two separate hires. Why clients work with me: • Integrated energy modeling + MEP design under one roof • Code-fluent across ASHRAE 90.1, NECB, Title 24, IECC, BREEAM, and Passive House • Data-driven, fully documented, on-time deliverables 🖥 Energy Modeling & Sustainability EnergyPlus, DesignBuilder, IESVE, PVsyst · ASHRAE 90.1 / Title 24 / NECB / IECC compliance · energy audits (ASHRAE 211, ENERGY STAR) · 179D support · daylight, thermal comfort & PV feasibility studies 🏢 Mechanical (MEP) Design HVAC system design (VRF, AHU, chillers, boilers, heat pumps) · heating & cooling load calculations · plumbing, fire protection & gas systems · full Revit MEP modeling with clash detection · equipment selection, BOQ & specs 🏊 Specialized: Pool & High-Humidity Spaces Hydraulic design, equipment sizing, and HVAC for pool halls and spas 📊 Engineering Analysis & Automation FEM & CFD simulation · MATLAB modeling · Python automation for engineering workflows 📩 Let's bring your high-performance building vision to life — message me to discuss your project.

I am a specialist in "Scientific Mobile" development—taking complex engineering logic and translating it into polished, production-ready software for iOS, Android, and Web. CORE SPECIALIZATIONS: SPATIAL ROBOTICS & DIGITAL TWINS: High-performance visualization for the robotics industry. Expertise in URDF parsing, MuJoCo physics integration, and real-time kinematic overlays using RealityKit and Unity. SCIENTIFIC MOBILE ARCHITECTURE: Expert-level development in Swift (SwiftUI), Kotlin (Jetpack Compose), and Python. I specialize in bridging scientific computing stacks with modern mobile UI. 3D GRAPHICS & ASSET PIPELINES: Full-cycle 3D development including Blender modeling, mobile-optimized GLB/USDZ file exports, photogrammetry for medical/industrial devices, and 3D graphics theory. TECHNICAL LEADERSHIP: 13 years of Aerospace R&D experience as a supervisor and lead engineer. I provide the high-level architecture and project management needed to take an idea from a whiteboard to a shipped MVP. THE ENGINEERING EDGE: Most developers lack the mechanical background to understand complex dynamics; most engineers lack the software skills to ship a native mobile app. I deliver both. My work on AR Mobile Robotics and Mobile Multibody Dynamics demonstrates my ability to build mathematically rigorous tools that remain intuitive and user-friendly. PROJECT FOCUS (4–12 WEEK SPRINTS): Robotics/Aerospace MVPs: Transforming research algorithms into prototypes. Industrial AR Tools: Building spatial viewers for medical or mechanical hardware. 3D Visualization: Creating high-fidelity 3D assets for complex products. Let’s build the future of spatial engineering together.

How to Hire Top MATLAB Developers

How to hire MATLAB developers

MATLAB developers can turn large data sets into data visualizations for research papers, create predictive models that integrate with streaming analytics platforms, and simulate physical phenomena. 

So how do you hire MATLAB developers? What follows are some tips for finding top MATLAB developers on Upwork.

How to shortlist MATLAB professionals

As you’re browsing available MATLAB consultants, it can be helpful to develop a shortlist of the professionals you may want to interview. You can screen profiles on criteria such as:

  • Subject matter fit. You want a MATLAB developer who understands the sciences, technologies, and numerical methods that are relevant to your project.
  • Project experience. Screen candidate profiles for specific skills and experience (e.g., creating a MATLAB/Simulink model to regulate the speed of an electric motor).
  • Feedback. Check reviews from past clients for glowing testimonials or red flags that can tell you what it’s like to work with a particular MATLAB developer.

How to write an effective MATLAB job post

With a clear picture of your ideal MATLAB developer in mind, it’s time to write that job post. Although you don’t need a full job description as you would when hiring an employee, aim to provide enough detail for a contractor to know if they’re the right fit for the project. 

An effective MATLAB job post should include: 

  • Scope of work: From mathematical models to data processing workflows, list all the deliverables you’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, sciences, or technologies, mention this here. 
  • Budget: Set a budget and note your preference for hourly rates vs. fixed-price contracts.

MATLAB DEVELOPERS FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is MATLAB? 

MATLAB is a programming language and environment that specializes in numerical computation. Scientists and engineers use MATLAB to perform data analytics, create mathematical models, and simulate physical phenomena. 

Here’s a quick overview of the skills you should look for in MATLAB professionals:

  • MATLAB
  • Data science
  • Software development
  • Academic research
  • Subject-matter expertise (e.g., machine learning, embedded systems, renewable energy)

Why hire MATLAB developers?

The trick to finding top MATLAB developers is to identify your needs. Do you have a large data set you need transformed into LaTeX data visualizations for an academic paper? Or do you require software development expertise to leverage MATLAB to do the heavy numerical computing in an existing data analytics pipeline? The cost of your project will depend largely on your scope of work and the specific skills needed to bring your project to life. 

How much does it cost to hire a MATLAB developer?

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

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

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