Does this seem like a good build? If not then what can I add to improve?

I would say it is a very good build for Condition Overload (viral, heat, slash, 100% status, speed), with the exception of Gladiator Vice. That mod does almost nothing in this build, since the crit chance is so low. Rather throw in another damage mod. Slash (Buzz Kill) or maybe electricity to gain radiation. Admittedly, heat status is more useful since it damages, but radiation damage is more powerful against all enemies with alloy armour (which includes all Corpus units with yellow health bars).

If the problem is the Gladiator Vice not doing much with critical's, why not remove the Fury mod instead?

If you're looking for something else to put, You can try a riven.

Well, the benefits are fairly small unless one has crit chance, crit damage and makes sure to build up a combo counter. Speed on the other hand, is essential to a Condition Overload build. One needs to hit several times to proc the different status effects. Speed is an instant way of increasing melee DPS a lot, whereas Gladiator Vice relies on several conditions, including keeping the combo counter up.

Well let me put it this way.

Both Gladiator Vice and Fury cost 9, and both give 30% speed.

Except Vice gives a tiny bit more in the set in extra features.

So why keep Fury over Gladiator Vice, is what I'm asking.
