About Tim

Fractional CPO / VP Product für digitale Plattformen. Ich unterstütze Gründerteams und Scale-ups dabei, Produktstrategie, Execution und Organisation schnell auf ein belastbares Niveau zu bringen ohne lange Ramp-up-Zeit.

Ich übernehme u. a. Produktvision & Strategy, Roadmaps/OKRs, Priorisierung, Discovery (Interviews, Hypothesen, Experimente), KPI- & Tracking-Setup sowie Go-to-Market- und Pricing-Fragestellungen. Auf Org-Seite baue ich klare Produktprozesse (SDLC, Entscheidungslogik, Backlog-Governance), stärke das Zusammenspiel mit Engineering und führe Produktteams hands-on (Hiring, Coaching, Rollen & Verantwortlichkeiten).

Typische Outcomes: Fokus statt Feature-Stau, schnellere Delivery, bessere Activation/Retention, valide Produktentscheidungen durch Daten & Nutzerfeedback und ein Produktbetrieb, der skalierbar funktioniert. Besonders stark bin ich in komplexen B2B-Umfeldern und Plattformprodukten – inklusive höherer Anforderungen an Qualität, Compliance und Stakeholder-Management.
