Mohammad Reza Nabizadeh, M.Sc., MBA
Growth Data Science Strategist
I am an Engineer who became a growth data science strategist specializing in data-driven business management and marketing insight.
About me
For almost seven years, I have worked with tech enterprises like Huawei Technologies and hyper-growth Canadian startups like Railz AI. I have managed over a $2M marketing budget, increased its Return on Investment (ROI) by 36%, and contributed $8.25M in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR). As a data-driven marketer, I designed strategies to engage with users and analyzed their behavior metrics, conversions, and retentions for over 1 million yearly active users.
Specializing in the design of user research plans and implementation of user behavior tracking platforms, I have developed a range of business metrics dashboards and data analysis tools to evaluate the effectiveness and return on investment of marketing programs.
I have done numerous data analytics in interaction-based customer segmentation, real-time sentiment analysis, causal inference, A/B tests, and purchase tendency prediction. Through my data-driven marketing experience, I have analyzed the customer acquisition cost, predicted the net profit, and optimized the daily ad spending on each marketing channel. At Railz, I have implemented an in-house user behavior analysis framework that enriches prospects' properties, predicts buying intent by analyzing leads' behavioral history, and derives product development insights through various clustering analyses.
