Hi, I'm Ayush Maniar. Currently, I'm pursuing a Master of Science in Computer Science (MSCS) at UC San Diego, with a specialization in Artificial Intelligence. I am passionate about AI Agents, particularly in the context of Multi-agent systems and Agentic-RAG. My other interests include Gaming, Augmented Reality and Bioinformatics.

Before joining UCSD, I worked as a Data Scientist III at Walmart Global Tech India (SAMS Club), where I focused on leveraging Data Science and Machine Learning to solve large scale complex business problems, particularly in logistics and inventory optimization. I have experience in time series forecasting, optimization using MILP, and building predictive models.

I also co-founded 'Eye In The Sky', a Deep Learning & Computer Vision startup focused on disaster management using drones during my undergraduate studies at IIT Madras.
