Founder biography

Built by an operator, for operators.

Ali founded SAZ to build the firm he wanted to hire as an operator — strategic, technical, and ruthless about execution. Over a decade as a founder, operator, and advisor across technology, real estate, infrastructure, and home services, he has built and scaled multiple businesses across Canada and led senior engagements for operators from venture-backed startups to nine-figure enterprise groups.

“I built SAZ to be the firm I wanted to hire as an operator — senior partners who actually ship, with the discipline to embed AI inside the workflows that move the business.”

— Ali Sedighi, Founder & Managing Partner
Founder principles

What every SAZ engagement runs on.

Strategy that ships

Every engagement defines the business outcome and ships the systems required to make it real.

Senior all the way down

The founder leads scoping and remains accountable through delivery.

Confidential, conflict-free

NDA-bound by default. Aligned to outcomes, even when it costs us the next phase.

Compound, don't consult

Every engagement leaves a system, cadence, and documentation that compounds after handoff.

The partner bench

Founder-led. Partner-extended.

SAZ scales engagements with a vetted bench of senior partners drawn from operating, consulting, and engineering practice. The founder remains the single point of accountability.
