# Vladimir Lovtsov — Владимир Ловцов

> IT leader, architect, and creator of software products. CTO, consulting, end-to-end product delivery, and applied AI / ML engagements.

This is the portfolio of Vladimir Mikhailovich Lovtsov (Владимир Михайлович Ловцов), author of the Telegram channel @it_underside. His work combines enterprise engineering leadership, architecture, data, education, and personal software products.

## Professional context

Current position since December 2025: Director of Project Portfolio Management and Development Cluster IT Lead at Innotech, T1 Group. CTO is a target engagement and area of responsibility, not a replacement for the formal current title.

The early real-time banking product (2023–2024, Saint HighLoad++ 2024) and the later Decision Engine project are separate projects. Lovtsov joined Decision Engine in late September 2024; development ran from December 2024 to April 2025. Five months describes development to production. Fourteen days describes average product-change time to market, not delivery time for any new product. Enterprise outcomes are team outcomes with the author's role stated in each case.
