From the start, I shaped the concept, the information architecture and the UX approach, led the design work, and brought hanseatics on board for the development. I run the backlog, write the acceptance criteria, test what the development partner ships, and take every release through go-live with the client’s approval.

The data comes from mobility and geospatial providers that fail in different ways, and deciding what users see when a source goes quiet is part of the product. Public kiosks fall back to a default state, so the next person starts clean. The code is published on openCode under the EUPL.

For four years without a gap I led delivery within deepblue’s team. I turned product concepts and strategy into requirements, worked through the technical consequences with development and UX, ran the sprints, and handled go/no-go and rollback for releases.

I drew the two system maps, web portal and tracking, that every stakeholder worked from, and I configured and maintained the tagging, tracking and consent flows myself. For the price comparison of 28 million products, I aligned the backend data model with the UX and set the server-side rendering requirements for indexing and search. For accessibility, I designed and prototyped an AI workflow that captioned more than 10,000 CMS images.

For the UNGER.DE relaunch, MUTABOR brought me in as the single point of contact between the client’s executive team, the UX designers and the Shopware development studio. I wrote the requirements and specifications, aligned the designs with the client, and checked each increment against them through QA and go-live preparation, including the hypercare plan. I validated the off-canvas cart, variant selection and the listing and filter states against Shopware constraints with the lead developer while changes were still cheap, and carried the client’s sign-offs.

KNF piloted online ordering of sample pumps in one market, with the client, MUTABOR’s designers and two development partners each owning part of the build. Across the four organizations I owned the purchase journey, from technical concept and requirements through end-to-end testing and joint acceptance. The existing TYPO3 site and the new Salesforce commerce area had to feel like one experience, which took custom modules on both sides: login and cart state moved over REST, and pricing appeared only after registration and login.

Over five years of repeat engagements I worked across concept, product and delivery in otelo’s B2C portfolio. I led the concept for a headless CMS serving web and native apps from one content system, which deepblue implemented.

I held production rights in the CMS, published approved tariff and campaign changes, and joined the on-call rota. I planned and defended maintenance and refactoring separately from feature work. I turned GDPR into consent specifications across web and apps, and specified, aligned and tested the identity checks and PSD2 flows with external providers.

Red Bull Media House commissioned the first Storm Chase platform directly from me. I pitched the concept, coordinated my own freelance developers and designers, and delivered the platform.

The event sends professional windsurfers into severe storms wherever they occur, with almost no audience on site, so the platform was the venue: registration, spot nomination, community voting, a global map and live coverage. During the missions I edited live in production and ran the event’s own channels. I returned for later editions through Big Sexy Pictures, in 2019 as Helicopter Producer.
