# Introducing Julia/Jobs

To fight the perception that there are "no Julia jobs" (or just used in academia), here is a list of companies that are known to have hired people to use Julia ("the issue is not the jobs not existing, it's the there's no complete list that shows just how many there are"):
* PumasAI
* Pfizer, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, Sanofi (and more pharma related)
* Beacon Biosignals
* JuliaHub (current name, founded in 2015 as Julia Computing Inc.)
* The Ohio State University, Pheasant Senior Research Technician, using Julia and "the Julia package ConScape"
* and startup companies, and numerous hedge funds and trading firms
** Invenia (went out of business, though still left behind 142 Julia packages they made on GitHub)
** Zipline (drone tech/medical supplies/blood delivery company)
Julia jobs include many remote, plus e.g. located in "San Diego, Bay Area, Boston, India, Germany, Sweden, UK."
Julia is also used e.g. for finance, and in science/academia, at NASA, and the Brazilian National Institute for Space Research (INPE) used Julia relating to the launch of Brazil's Amazonia-1 Satellite, CERN (for the Large Hadron Collider), the Federal Reserve Bank (of New York), FAA, BlackRock AI Labs, State Street, Los Alamos National Laboratory, The Brazilian National Bank for Economic and Social Development, RIKEN (at their Center for Biosystems Dynamics Research, for RNA sequencing), Google Research, and AstraZeneca.
