Joining Gaper has allowed me to focus more on doing what I enjoy rather than spending hours on end trying to find the right project to work on

I used to spend endless hours trying to build my profile with relevant work experience as a developer I would get to work with some of the most brilliant minds from the comfort of my home.

Gaper has allowed me to maintain financial stability via long-term projects. I have had the opportunity to not just grow as a freelance react developer but I have also been actively referring my colleagues to join Gaper to find full-time, long-term work projects.

When it comes to making decisions, we humans aren’t always independent thinkers. We depend on our network’s opinions, advice, or perspectives for making the right decision. Gaper has been one of the best decision makers for me for choosing the right project.

What you can build with Gaper AI Engineers

LLM-powered chatbots and internal copilots

Chat interfaces, document Q&A, and internal copilots that actually understand your business context using GPT-4o, Claude 3.5, or Gemini. Gaper engineers build these with proper RAG pipelines, not brittle prompt hacks.

AI agents and autonomous workflows

Multi-step agents that browse the web, call APIs, write code, and self-correct. Built with LangChain, LlamaIndex, or custom agent frameworks depending on your reliability requirements.

Custom model fine-tuning and MLOps

Domain-specific fine-tuning on your proprietary data using LoRA, QLoRA, or full fine-tuning. Includes inference optimization, model serving on AWS/GCP/Azure, and monitoring pipelines.

Computer vision and multimodal AI

Image classification, object detection, OCR, video analysis, and multimodal systems combining text with images or audio. Used in healthcare, manufacturing QC, retail, and security.

How Gaper vets AI Engineers

Most AI engineers on generic platforms have only worked with pre-built APIs. Gaper screens specifically for engineers who can debug model behavior, evaluate output quality at scale, and build production-grade inference pipelines, not just call an endpoint.

Skills and areas assessed in our technical screen

  • LLM API integration (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google)
  • RAG pipeline design and vector database choice (Pinecone, Weaviate, pgvector)
  • Fine-tuning with LoRA and QLoRA on GPU clusters
  • Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX
  • MLOps tooling: MLflow, Weights and Biases, BentoML
  • Prompt engineering and evaluation frameworks
  • Responsible AI and output validation strategies

Frequently asked questions

How quickly can I get an AI engineer from Gaper?

You will be matched with 2 to 3 vetted AI engineers within 24 hours of your first call. Onboarding typically takes one to two days. All engagements start with a two-week risk-free trial so you can verify fit before committing.

What AI frameworks do Gaper engineers know?

Our AI engineers are proficient in PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX, LangChain, LlamaIndex, Hugging Face Transformers, and the major LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Cohere, Google). We also cover MLOps tools including MLflow, Weights and Biases, and AWS SageMaker.

Can Gaper engineers work with our existing codebase?

Yes. Our engineers are experienced at integrating AI capabilities into existing Python, Node.js, Java, and other stacks. They work asynchronously and communicate clearly in English, which is a hard requirement at Gaper.

What is the hourly rate for an AI engineer from Gaper?

Rates start at $35/hr for senior AI engineers, compared to $150 to $250/hr from agencies like Toptal. You get the same caliber of talent at 60 to 80 percent lower cost, with no agency markup hidden in the invoice.

Do you offer team placements for AI projects?

Yes. You can hire a single engineer or a full AI team including an ML engineer, a data engineer, and an MLOps specialist. Tell us your project scope and we will recommend the right team composition.
