Marut Pandya is an ML/AI researcher and engineer with 8 years of experience building large-scale inference and post-training systems for LLMs, reinforcement learning, and high-performance computing. Based in San Francisco, he has driven production-grade work on TensorRT-LLM, vLLM, Triton and distributed GPU serving (RoCE/InfiniBand, NCCL, SLURM) while contributing to model fine-tuning pipelines including distillation, reward modeling and GRPO/DPO. He joined RunPod early as employee #12 and now researches frontier data and RL infrastructure at Osmosis (YC W25), blending hands-on systems optimization with experimental RL environments. A prolific full‑stack engineer, he led major UI refactors and runtime SBOM features in the 5k+ star ThreatMapper project and maintains multi-language algorithm implementations on GitHub. He pairs deep systems-level performance work (caching, parallel data access, DDP/FSDP/Tensor/ pipeline parallelism) with practical product delivery across cloud-native stacks. An active founder and contributor, he’s equally focused on mechanistic interpretability and inference optimization as the next frontiers of responsible, efficient AI.
