Ali Naserifar

Product leader and AI practitioner across mobility, payments/fintech, telecom, and adtech. I ship small, instrumented launches, measure lift, and iterate. Style: systems-first, numbers-first—define the problem, pick the reversible bet, prove impact, keep what works.

AI Engineering

Python, CV, NLP—models shipped as low-latency, production APIs with health checks, rollbacks, and full traceability. Portfolio spans NLP (ASR/TTS, summarization/extraction), CV (OCR, background removal, quality/safety filters), time-series forecasting, and selective generative prototypes—instrumented, versioned, and monitored. Experience includes fine-tuning and training LLMs for domain-specific tasks, and training text-to-image models for custom visual generation use cases.

Ride-Hailing — Finance & Fraud

Owned the finance & fraud stack end-to-end; delivered up to 5% of NMV cost savings via fraud loss reduction and payment cost optimization. Built and tuned wallet, debt, and cash-out experiences; streamlined back-office flows to cut manual work. Shipped an ensemble fraud layer leveraging location data, graph theory (coordinated fraud detection), supervised ML (classification models), and unsupervised learning (anomaly detection) with near-real-time scoring, calibrated thresholds, analyst override paths, and case explainability.

Fintech

Market research and vendor evaluation for transaction risk & compliance; map requirements to build/buy decisions with contractable SLAs and unit-economics targets. Stand up fraud detection services (feature stores, streaming scoring, feedback loops), tighten dispute/chargeback posture, and harden compliance workflows. Banking infrastructure design and fintech strategy definition for scalable payment systems and financial operations.

Product Analytics & Advisory

Data-science backbone applied to product: metric trees and event contracts, trustworthy attribution, MDE/power-aware experimentation, and causal checks. Turn market research → internal signals → PMF into decision memos, instrument the smallest shippable change, and report lift.

Growth & Adtech

Startup-grade growth loops (referral, partner, content, product-led), disciplined A/B and cohort views, and dashboards leaders actually use. Focus on systems that compound: faster activation, steadier retention, clearer monetization—built, measured, iterated.
