Stefan Karpinski
Stefan Karpinski is an American computer scientist known for being a co-creator of the Julia programming language.[1][2][3][4] He is an alumnus of Harvard and works at Julia Computing, which he co-founded with Julia co-creators, Alan Edelman, Jeff Bezanson, Viral B. Shah as well as Keno Fischer and Deepak Vinchhi.[5][6] He also has a part-time appointment at New York University's Center for Data Science as a Research Engineer as part of the Moore-Sloan Data Science Environment.[7][8][9]

He received a B.A. in mathematics from Harvard in 2000,[10] and has completed much of the work on a PhD in computer science from UCSB with research on modeling local area network traffic. He is one of the four main authors of core academic papers on Julia.[11][12] He speaks regularly on Julia at industry events on scientific computing, programming languages, and data science.[9][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20]
In 2006 Karpinski participated in the Subway Challenge,[21] holding for some time the Guinness World Record for the fastest transit stopping at all NYC subway stations.
