My job is to enable successful UX design within a company. This includes setting up and growing the UX team, establishing a design system, designing design processes, defining and developing UX maturity and UX culture within the company, and developing strategies that combine business requirements and user experience design.

UX Strategist & AI App Developer (AI-assisted App Strategy) at Own Projects (Nutrycoach.ai, LuxuryBandit)
Conceptualizing and developing AI-powered app MVPs from the first idea to a working product. I combine UX strategy with modern AI and no-code tools — especially Claude and Claude Code, where I work directly in the terminal on real code (React, Vite), complemented by Figma, Bolt.new, and Base44 — to quickly validate and build product ideas. Personal platforms: Nutrycoach.ai (AI nutrition coaching with role-based dashboards for clients, coaches, and admins, AI meal analysis, and a scalable design system) and LuxuryBandit (content/creator app). This led to my own practice 'AI-assisted App Strategy', which combines human creativity, UX logic, and intelligent automation.

About the role
What they do
A UX consultant helps companies turn product goals into clear user experiences. They look at the full journey, from discovery to task completion, and point out where users get stuck. In Berlin, this often means work for product teams, SaaS companies, agencies, and scale-ups that need outside eyes on a live product or a new concept.
- Review interfaces, flows, and content for usability gaps
- Run user research and turn findings into practical recommendations
- Map journeys, journeys-to-task, and service touchpoints
- Support product teams with design direction and prioritization
Typical deliverables
Strong UX consultants do not just give feedback. They deliver concrete outputs that teams can use in sprints, workshops, and stakeholder reviews. Common work includes audit reports, research summaries, journey maps, wireframe input, and test plans.
- Heuristic UX audits and annotated screen reviews
- User interview guides and usability test scripts
- Journey maps, service blueprints, and opportunity maps
- Actionable recommendations for product, content, and design teams
Core skills
A good UX Consultant combines research, interaction thinking, and clear communication. They need to read both user behavior and business constraints, then explain trade-offs in plain language. Many clients also expect comfort with product discovery, accessibility basics, and stakeholder workshops.
- User research methods such as interviews, testing, and surveys
- Information architecture, navigation, and interaction patterns
- Figma, Miro, FigJam, and analytics tools
- Accessibility-aware thinking and strong facilitation skills
When to bring one in
Companies hire a UX consultant when the product feels unclear, conversion drops, or the internal team needs specialist support. They are also useful before a redesign, after a failed launch, or when design decisions are stalled by conflicting opinions. In Berlin, this often fits digital products, fintech, mobility, and B2B teams that need remote collaboration but also value on-site workshops in German or English.
What good looks like
A strong UX consultant is precise, structured, and hard to distract. They ask the right questions, connect user needs to business goals, and give advice that can be implemented by product managers and designers. They also know when to challenge assumptions and when to validate them with research.
Working with them
Freelance UX consultants are a good fit when you need focused expertise without adding a permanent role. They can join for a few workshops, a discovery phase, or a longer product improvement track. The best ones adapt quickly to your setup, whether your team works in sprint cycles, discovery flows, or a design system-led process.
Frequently asked questions
Need clarity? These are the questions we hear most often about UX Consultants.
A UX consultant reviews how a product works for users and where the experience breaks down. They may audit screens, run research, shape journeys, and suggest changes that product and design teams can ship. In freelance work, the scope is usually focused on a specific product problem, redesign, or discovery phase.
Use a UX consultant when you need outside expertise for a clear phase of work, not long-term coverage. That is common for product reviews, redesigns, launches, and stalled decision-making. A freelancer is often faster to bring in when the team needs help now and the scope is well defined.
A UX Consultant often combines both research and design thinking, but the role is broader and more advisory. A UX designer usually focuses more on screens and flows, while a UX researcher goes deeper into user studies and evidence. In practice, some freelancers cover all three areas, especially in smaller teams.
Look for strong research skills, clear product thinking, and the ability to explain recommendations without jargon. A good UX consultant should be comfortable with interviews, usability testing, information architecture, and workshop facilitation. Tool knowledge matters too, especially Figma, Miro, and the analytics stack your team already uses.
A UX consultant should leave behind usable output, not just opinions. Common deliverables include audit notes, research summaries, journey maps, wireframe guidance, and practical next steps for the team. If the work is strategic, they may also define assumptions to test before design starts.
Yes, most UX consultants can work remotely with Berlin teams without any problem. On-site time is useful for workshops, stakeholder alignment, and early discovery sessions, especially when several departments need to agree on priorities. Many clients use a hybrid setup so the consultant can join key meetings in person and do the rest online.
A strong UX consultant connects user evidence to a clear business case and does not stop at surface-level feedback. Look for specific examples of work on similar products, the ability to frame trade-offs, and recommendations that are realistic for your team. Good consultants ask sharp questions before they propose solutions.
Berlin teams in SaaS, fintech, mobility, e-commerce, and digital services often bring in a UX consultant. These companies usually need help with complex flows, product growth, or interface clarity across multiple user groups. Agencies also hire freelance UX consultants when a client project needs extra depth or a fresh perspective.
The average hourly rate for UX Consultants in Berlin is 88 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 707 € based on an 8-hour working day.
