Presumably there is a systemd service, which is enabled. You will want
to disable it.
So, figure out the name of this service (assuming it does in fact exist),
and then issue the command:
systemctl disable servicename
as root, of course. That will make it refrain from starting up at the
next boot. To stop it right now, also issue this command:
systemctl stop servicename
Or, if you prefer, you can combine the two:
systemctl --now disable servicename
