Summary
Vladimir Vasiltsov is a seasoned production engineering leader with 13 years of experience delivering reliable, high-performance systems across media, gaming, healthcare, and finance. Currently a Production Engineering Manager at Meta, he has a track record of running large portfolios—previously managing 70+ systems for $40B in media content—and driving measurable outcomes like cutting MTTR from days to hours and improving SLAs to 99.94%. He excels at system re-architecture, cost optimization, and automation, having saved millions via cloud spend reductions, vendor renegotiations, and rebuilds of critical internal apps. A hands-on manager and mentor, he consistently reduces turnover and accelerates delivery cadence (from quarterly to bi-weekly at CAQH) while enabling major launches and scaling services to hundreds of thousands of QPS. Vladimir’s background in mathematics and software engineering underpins a data-driven approach to reliability and performance, and he often combines algorithmic thinking (e.g., sim-hash workflows) with pragmatic operational leadership.
