Maruf Aytekin is a Principal Machine Learning Engineer based in New York with a decade of experience building production-grade AI and distributed systems at scale. He leads development of LLM-based agents, RAG pipelines and LLMOps platforms—combining practical ML research with engineering rigor to deliver reliable, monitored AI services. At Walmart Global Tech he has driven end-to-end designs from real-time anomaly detection and centralized ML orchestration to high-throughput feature pipelines and conversational guardrails. Comfortable across Python, Go and cloud-native tooling, he pairs deep model work (sentence transformers, BERT) with systems engineering (Kafka, Kubernetes, Milvus, Neo4j). His background includes scalable performance testing, open-source streaming libraries and a PhD research thread in large-scale recommendation algorithms, reflecting a rare mix of research, ops and product focus. Colleagues rely on him for turning cutting-edge ML ideas into safe, observable, enterprise-ready systems.
