Machine Learning Systems & AI Infrastructure

Mustafa Mert Tunalı

I build production machine learning systems. My work covers data pipelines, training, inference, and the platform layer behind document understanding, computer vision, and generative AI applications.

I am joining turbalance as an incoming Software Engineer on May 18, 2026. I will work on AI trace generation for distributed workloads, helping make large-scale AI systems easier to observe, replay, and optimize.

Previously, I built core systems for document processing and enterprise automation at Multimodal, and computer vision systems and machine learning models in healthcare and robotics.

Work

AI Infrastructure

My work sits at the intersection of machine learning and systems engineering. I focus on the infrastructure behind AI applications: serving, orchestration, tracing, reliability, latency, and cost.

Starting May 18, 2026

I will work on systems that capture and analyze how distributed AI workloads run across GPUs and clusters. The focus is trace collection, instrumentation, and simulation for LLM inference and training systems, with the goal of finding bottlenecks and improving performance at scale.

Beyond Code

Track, Fiction, Neuroscience

On the Nordschleife, where every lap is a lesson in precision.

Outside of building AI systems, you will find me on the track, specifically the Nürburgring Nordschleife. I am drawn to sim racing and the challenge of perfecting every apex and braking point.

I read science fiction and dive into neuroscience papers when I can. The intersection of biological and artificial intelligence shapes how I think about building better models.

On AGI: I believe we are further away than the hype suggests. Reinforcement learning shows promise in specific domains, but it is not a silver bullet. The path forward requires rigorous research, not just scaling existing methods.
