Victor Vieux is a Staff Software Engineer with 14 years of experience building containerization, orchestration, and compute platforms from Docker core to production fleets. Currently leading Compute Platform (Agent Sandbox) work at Replit, he previously headed engineering and shaped backend/proxy architectures across startups and scale-ups including Formal, OpenSea, and Cruise. A long-time contributor to Docker and related open-source projects (moby, swarmkit, runc/libcontainer), he brings deep expertise in low-level container primitives, CLI tooling, and distributed system APIs. He combines hands-on systems engineering—authoring container engines, process managers, and platform integrations—with people leadership and cross-continental team growth. Notably, his open-source commits span both core runtime features (cgroups, capabilities, freezing processes) and UX touches like UI/game fixes in Colobot, showing range from infrastructure to user-facing polish. Based in San Francisco, he blends pragmatic product focus with a history of shipping secure, scalable platform software.
