Juli Bakagianni is a data scientist with 13 years of experience applying machine learning and NLP to research-driven and production settings across Greece and EU projects. She has led national-scale technical teams and delivered cloud-scalable infrastructures for multiple CLARIN and ELG initiatives, while also coordinating research activities for EU-funded food risk and digital landscape projects. Her recent work includes organizing SemEval 2025 Task 9 and placing 2nd in the SIGIR 2025 LiveRAG challenge on fairness, reflecting a strong blend of research rigor and competitive applied ML. Juli combines hands-on model development—from RNN architectures for content moderation to contemporary NLP pipelines—with backend engineering and workshop-driven knowledge transfer to humanities audiences. She holds an MSc in Data and Computer Systems Engineering and a dual-background in informatics and business administration, which informs her pragmatic, impact-focused approach. Colleagues describe her as a bridge between research, engineering and policy-focused projects, with a knack for turning complex language data into usable, fair systems.
