Summary
Taher Haghverdi is a Senior Product Manager with a decade of hands-on experience turning mobile-first consumer products into scalable businesses across North America and the Middle East. He blends a technical foundation in mobile engineering with strategic product leadership—having led ML-driven search and discovery, AI SaaS launches, and monetization initiatives at companies like Cafe Bazaar, Divar, and Vidyard. Taher is pragmatic about value: he prioritizes problem discovery, simple design, measurable outcomes, and fast learning cycles to de-risk products and accelerate impact. He has a track record of building cross-functional teams, defining OKRs, and aligning execs to secure resources for high-impact initiatives. Equally comfortable shipping code early in his career and now steering product strategy, he brings rare empathy for engineering trade-offs and customer nuance. Based in Toronto with an MBA and computer engineering background, he often surfaces non-obvious insights by questioning assumptions and embedding user feedback into every iteration.
