About

Product depth meets AI craft.

I have been building digital products for 15+ years — mostly where regulation, trust and user-friendly design need to align at the same time. Today I translate that experience into my own AI products.

Currently @ Spendit AG

Background: Telefónica (Mobile Financial Services), Wirecard, founder of Mirrorized GmbH (IoT/crowdfunding), Head of Product at PM Immobilien (90 % digitalisation, +20 % profit) and PPRO Financial. Today I combine all of that with an AI master at IU.

Focus areas

  • Product Strategy
  • AI / Generative AI
  • FinTech & Banking
  • EU AI Act & Compliance
  • Agile Leadership

Services

Four fields where I create impact today.

  • AI product strategy & roadmapping

    From use case to a roadmap that holds up — including build-vs-buy, data setup and risk view.

  • AI in regulated industries

    FinTech, banking, compliance: AI solutions that pass the EU AI Act, GDPR and internal governance.

  • Digital transformation & agile coaching

    Operational transformation, cross-functionality, clear outcomes instead of process theatre.

  • MVP building & prototyping

    From concept to a working prototype in weeks, not months — with modern AI tooling.

Projects

Two products. Two worlds. One signature.

Both products combine product mindset, regulatory understanding and AI-driven automation.
