Hi, I'm Nazir.

I'm on the founding team of Teero, an AI-native staffing marketplace and back-office automation for healthcare in the USA. I've been building it since 2022.

Before that I spent a decade building marketplaces in Russia, from e-commerce to ride-hailing and food delivery. From 2016 I was part of the Uber Russia team and later Yandex. Since 2012 I've worked in data science.

In 2019 I started a startup in digital outdoor hardware. It later became part of Yandex as a new subsidiary, Yandex Taxi DOOH.

In 2016 I also co-founded a company that makes productivity apps. Its products are Unit, a native and private note-taking app for iOS, and Nanotype, a private writing app that lives in your browser.

I'm from Russia. I studied mathematics and physics at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology and spent my early career in chemical physics and mass spectrometry.

I also have a long-standing interest in machine learning, blockchain, robotics, and space exploration.
