Vladimir Prudnikov is a Staff Data Platform Engineer based in Prague with over 15 years of hands-on experience building cloud-native, low-ops systems end-to-end. He leads data platform teams at Paylocity, where he architected a mono-repo pipeline deployment process that cut new pipeline time from two weeks to two hours and reduced pipeline cadence from hours to minutes. Comfortable across backend, full-stack and data domains, he favors Python and Go services, TypeScript frontends, PostgreSQL/Snowflake analytics, and IaC with Pulumi/Terraform. He has a proven track record taking products from blank repo to production—co-founding profitable developer tooling and shipping consumer and enterprise services. Pragmatic about trade-offs, he pushes for decoupled, well-tested architecture and the operational details (CI/CD, observability) that make systems reliable in production.
