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
Commerce platform
Magento is an open-source commerce platform for building and operating flexible online stores. Its current ecosystem includes Magento Open Source and Adobe Commerce, with support for catalog management, customer accounts, promotions, checkout and multi-store operations. Companies use it for direct-to-consumer, B2B and marketplace-connected commerce.
Store capabilities
Magento supports complex product data, configurable products, regional catalogs and tailored buying journeys. Experts use it to deliver storefronts, headless commerce experiences, subscription flows and customer-specific pricing. Its modular structure allows business rules to be adapted without replacing the entire commerce foundation.
- Product catalogs with configurable and bundled products
- Multi-store and multi-language commerce operations
- B2B accounts, approval workflows and negotiated pricing
- Custom checkout, payment and shipping journeys
Ecosystem and tooling
The platform is built around PHP, Composer and a modular extension system. Strong specialists work with GraphQL, REST APIs, JavaScript storefront layers, databases, caching and search services such as OpenSearch. They also connect Magento with ERP, PIM, CRM, payment, tax, fulfilment and analytics tools.
When to bring expertise
Companies often seek freelance support during a replatforming project, a major Magento upgrade or a store expansion into new markets. External professionals can resolve performance bottlenecks, replace fragile extensions and improve checkout reliability without slowing ongoing commerce operations. Berlin teams may also benefit from specialists who combine remote delivery with on-site workshops and clear English or German communication.
Delivery and quality
Reliable Magento work starts with a clear review of the catalog model, integrations, hosting setup and release process. Experienced professionals test checkout paths, indexing, cache behaviour, permissions and third-party extensions before changes reach production. They document decisions, protect upgrade paths and separate custom modules from the platform core.
Choosing a specialist
Look for evidence of stores with comparable catalog complexity, transaction flows and integration needs. Ask how the professional handles security patches, extension conflicts, deployment automation, observability and rollback planning. A strong specialist explains trade-offs in plain language, works from measurable acceptance criteria and leaves maintainable code and operating documentation behind.
Frequently asked questions
Before you brief your next project: the most common questions about Magento.
Magento is used to build and run online stores with complex catalogs, customer accounts, promotions, checkout flows and multiple sales channels. It is a strong fit for companies that need deep control over product data, pricing, integrations or regional storefronts.
Magento offers more control over complex catalogs, custom business rules and infrastructure than Shopify, while WooCommerce is often simpler for smaller WordPress-based stores. The right choice depends on integration depth, operating capacity, content needs and how much customization the business requires.
A strong Magento specialist should understand PHP, Composer, databases, caching, search, APIs and front-end commerce patterns. Experience with ERP, PIM, payment, tax, fulfilment and analytics integrations is also valuable for projects that extend beyond the storefront.
The required level depends on the scope, not on the platform name alone. A simple storefront adjustment may need focused specialist support, while a replatforming, B2B rollout or multi-store integration calls for a professional who can plan architecture, delivery, testing and operations.
Yes, Magento work is well suited to remote collaboration when repositories, environments, tickets and release ownership are clearly managed. Berlin companies can combine remote delivery with on-site discovery sessions when product, operations or integration decisions benefit from direct workshops.
Review comparable commerce projects and ask to see how the professional approached performance, security, testing and extension conflicts. High-quality Magento work keeps customizations upgradeable, documents integrations and verifies critical journeys such as search, cart, checkout and order fulfilment.
Magento Open Source provides the core commerce platform under its open-source model, while Adobe Commerce adds commercial capabilities and services for more demanding business operations. A specialist should map the required features, hosting model, support expectations and integration needs before recommending an edition.
Before starting Magento work, freelancers should clarify the edition, release state, hosting environment, extension inventory, deployment process and business-critical checkout paths. They should also confirm access, decision ownership and whether the assignment covers fixes, upgrades, new features or ongoing technical support.
