Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolVlad Poenaru is a Production Engineer with 13 years of experience building reliable, automated systems at scale, currently working at Meta in London. He has a strong track record in platform and production engineering across Microsoft, PropertyGuru and startups, where he drove mono-repo migrations, continuous delivery pipelines, monitoring/alerting systems, and microservice adoption. Vlad pairs deep systems and networking research (PhD work) with hands-on software delivery—implementing IoT pipelines, testing frameworks, and even a Raspberry Pi telemetry distro to make teams data-aware. He leads by shipping practical tooling that reduces toil and improves reliability, often single-handedly prototyping cross-cutting solutions. Curious and investigative by nature, he favors code-first problem solving and has a history of translating research and patents into production software. Based in the UK, he brings an uncommon mix of academic rigor and production-hardened pragmatism to platform engineering challenges.
