Summary
Ivan Vasilev is an AI-native product director based in London with 20+ years shipping customer-centric products across fintech, healthcare and e-commerce, combining hands-on coding, ML and design leadership. He has scaled teams and systems—from founding an ML-first hiring prep startup and building ML recommenders at a YC alum, to growing Alfa-Bank’s design org to 30+ and open-sourcing an industrial design system used by millions. At VisitHealth he doubled revenue through UX-led product, data-driven marketing and an attribution pipeline, and now prototypes clinical AI tools that bridge scan visualisation and care workflows. Equally fluent in customer research, information architecture and data analytics, he’s known for turning qualitative insights into production ML features and rapid AI-enabled prototypes. A visual-arts-trained designer turned programmer, he blends creative product instincts with pragmatic metrics and technical delivery.
