Hubertus S.
Last position:
Senior Product Manager AI
Workflow-automation SaaS for operations teams (Berlin, 120 people); full-time freelance engagement reporting to the CEO: an initial 12-month interim mandate, extended twice through the AI build-out; owned product for one squad and coached the other product managers on process.
- Led generative AI (LLM) integration into the core product: from LLM-powered steps to natural-language workflow authoring and step-level automation suggestions, plus AI-managed dynamic workflows, shipped behind eval gates with human-in-the-loop fallbacks: AI-drafted workflows grew to 31% of all new workflows, and median time-to-first-workflow fell from 3 days to 4 hours.
- Packaged the AI capabilities as a usage-based add-on priced on executed automation steps, working with sales and marketing on positioning: ~€800K added ARR in the first year, and adopting accounts churned 1.8 pp less.
- Owned the roadmap end to end: replaced feature-request-driven quarterly planning with an outcome-based rolling roadmap built on quarterly bets and explicit kill criteria, presented monthly to the executive team and quarterly to the board.
- Rebuilt the product-management operating system: weekly customer-discovery cadence incl. workshop facilitation, RFC/decision-doc reviews and a single quarterly metrics narrative; coached four product managers, one promoted to senior during the engagement.
- Closed the engagement as scoped: hired and onboarded the permanent VP Product, handed over the process playbook and roadmap, and exited on schedule in June 2026.

About the technology
AI-First Code Editing with Cursor
Cursor is an intelligent code editor built as an AI-first fork of VS Code. It combines local editing capabilities with deep language model integration, enabling rapid code generation, multi-file edits, and automated terminal commands. Development teams adopt it to accelerate iteration cycles and modernize their workflows.
Core Workflows and Project Capabilities
- Multi-file automated edits and large-scale architectural refactoring
- Codebase indexing and vector embeddings for contextual code generation
- Natural language terminal execution and debugging workflows
- Custom system prompt definitions and team-wide rules configuration
- Integration with Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, and custom local models
Engineering Tooling and Ecosystem Integration
Cursor maintains direct compatibility with the Visual Studio Code extension ecosystem, Git version control, and standard language servers. Specialists configure repository-level rules such as cursorrules files to align generated output with linting setups, test frameworks, and internal design patterns. It integrates cleanly into existing CI and deployment pipelines.
Why Berlin Startups and Tech Teams Hire Specialists
Berlin hosts a dense tech ecosystem spanning fintech, climate tech, and SaaS scale-ups. Companies across Kreuzberg, Mitte, and Charlottenburg hire external professionals to train engineering teams on modern workflows, establish secure LLM usage guidelines, and migrate development environments without disrupting existing release cadence.
Distinguishing Elite Practitioners
Top specialists go beyond basic prompt writing. They structure repositories for clean semantic retrieval, establish robust context windows, and manage codebase indexing strategies across large monorepos. They also assess code quality rigorously, catching edge cases and hallucinations before work reaches staging environments.
Hybrid Engagements and Collaboration Across Berlin
Organizations in Berlin often require specialists who can alternate between remote sprint delivery and on-site architecture workshops. Clear English documentation is standard across the city, though German language capability is often valuable when coordinating with enterprise stakeholders or adhering to local compliance frameworks.
Frequently asked questions
What clients ask us most about Cursor — answered in short.
Cursor delivers native codebase indexing and multi-file code transformations directly within the editor interface. Rather than relying on simple code completions, it references repository context, project documentation, and custom team instructions to suggest comprehensive, syntactically sound changes.
While GitHub Copilot operates primarily as an in-line completion extension, Cursor functions as an AI-first editor environment. It allows users to query entire project directories, run terminal commands through natural language, and apply edits across multiple files in a single prompt.
A proficient specialist in Cursor must have deep expertise in standard programming languages such as TypeScript, Python, or Go, alongside version control best practices. They should also understand prompt design, context retrieval mechanics, and repository configuration using custom project rules.
Experienced Cursor professionals configure privacy modes, prevent proprietary source code from being stored for external model training, and set up self-hosted or zero-data-retention API endpoints. This setup is crucial for meeting European data standards and local enterprise compliance requirements.
Yes, many tech firms in Berlin book specialists for on-site workshops in central hubs like Mitte or Friedrichshain to configure setups and train development teams. Projects then typically transition into flexible remote workflows for long-term support and code review.
Most engineering teams working with the Cursor editor in Berlin use English as their primary working language for sprint planning and technical documentation. German language skills are helpful for enterprises with established corporate structures, but rarely required in startup environments.
Evaluate candidates by reviewing their approach to codebase indexing, automated test verification, and custom workspace instructions. A strong Cursor specialist demonstrates deep knowledge of model failure modes, refactoring discipline, and maintainable software architecture rather than blindly trusting generated output.
While entry-level engineers can use the tool, getting full value out of the Cursor AI editor in complex codebases requires seasoned professionals. Strong domain knowledge ensures that generated architectures follow design patterns, security boundaries, and maintainable testing structures.
