Christine T.
Last position:
Communications Consulting at Storytrend
Most mid-sized companies already have their numbers. What is missing is the translation: a dashboard with forty tiles does not answer a single question that is actually asked in management.
Analysis
- Evaluation of existing data with Python and SQL
- Checking data quality and methodology before making a statement
- The result is an analysis that leads toward a concrete decision
Preparation
- Reports in Power BI and Tableau
- Interactive calculators and visualizations on the web
- Presentations and specialist texts for customers, sales and the public
- Analysis and communication from one source — that

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.

Sindy S.
Last position:
Project Manager at skriptfabrik
- Project management for synchronization between Moco and HubSpot
Project description
- The client uses HubSpot as CRM and MOCO as ERP. This naturally creates overlaps, which lead to extra manual work for employees. This not only cost time (and therefore money), but was also error-prone, which in turn cost even more time and money.
- For this reason, we implemented a series of n8n workflows for the client that keep both systems in sync.
Industry: Management Consulting
Project team: 1 Project Manager, 2 Developers
Complexity: Medium
Tools: Atlassian Jira, HubSpot, Moco, n8n
Technical description
- HubSpot users, who mainly come from sales, can now focus fully on working in the CRM. Administrative tasks - such as invoicing - can be handled by accounting in MOCO. The n8n workflows ensure that the data in both tools matches.
Focus areas
- Synchronization of customers/companies between Moco <-> HubSpot
- Synchronization of contacts between Moco <-> HubSpot
- Synchronization of leads/deals between Moco <-> HubSpot
- Initial import incl. matching of companies, customers and leads already present in the systems

About the technology
What Metabase does
Metabase is an open-source business intelligence and analytics platform for exploring data, creating dashboards and sharing questions across a company. It connects business users with databases through a visual interface while still supporting SQL for more advanced analysis. Teams use it to monitor operations, product activity, sales performance and financial data without building every report from scratch.
Data connections
Metabase works with relational databases and cloud warehouses such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, Snowflake, BigQuery and Redshift. Strong implementation work includes setting up secure connections, defining metadata, creating useful models and documenting table relationships. Specialists may also align Metabase with dbt, ETL pipelines and existing data governance practices.
Dashboards and questions
The platform supports saved questions, interactive dashboards, filters, drill-through views, subscriptions and alerts. Professionals turn complex source data into clear metrics that different teams can use consistently. They also know when to use the query builder and when a carefully written SQL question is the better choice.
Typical projects
- Create executive, sales, product or operations dashboards
- Replace spreadsheet-based reporting with shared analytics
- Configure permissions, collections and certified metrics
- Connect Metabase to a warehouse or operational database
- Improve dashboard performance and query reliability
Metabase is often introduced during a reporting redesign, a warehouse migration or the rollout of self-service analytics. It can support internal decision-making as well as embedded analytics in a customer-facing product.
When expertise matters
- Reports disagree because teams use different metric definitions
- Dashboards are slow, hard to maintain or difficult to interpret
- Access rules must separate sensitive data by team or account
- A company needs embedded analytics without creating a custom interface
Companies in Germany may bring in freelance expertise when an internal data team needs focused delivery or when business and technical teams must align quickly. Remote collaboration works well for configuration and dashboard work; on-site workshops can help with discovery and stakeholder training.
What strong specialists bring
Effective Metabase professionals combine SQL, data modeling, dashboard design and user enablement. They understand the source systems behind each metric and test results instead of treating visual polish as proof of quality. They can explain trade-offs around permissions, caching, query performance and embedded analytics in clear business language.
A careful specialist also establishes naming standards, ownership and documentation so the environment remains useful after handover. For projects in Germany, teams may value fluent German alongside English when workshops involve local business groups, while technical delivery can often be coordinated remotely.
Frequently asked questions
What clients ask us most about Metabase — answered in short.
Metabase is used to explore databases, create dashboards and distribute recurring business reports. Companies use it for operational monitoring, product analytics, sales reporting, financial views and self-service questions.
Metabase focuses on accessible, web-based analytics with a strong open-source offering and a straightforward setup. Power BI and Tableau may provide broader enterprise visualization features, so the right choice depends on governance, modeling depth, Microsoft integration, embedding needs and the audience creating reports.
A strong Metabase specialist usually brings SQL, data modeling and experience with relational databases or cloud warehouses. Helpful adjacent skills include dbt, ETL design, permissions, dashboard UX, performance tuning and embedded analytics.
The scope matters more than a fixed amount of experience. A simple dashboard rollout may need strong Metabase configuration and SQL skills, while a governed environment with several data sources, row-level access and embedded analytics calls for deeper architecture and delivery experience.
Metabase projects are often suitable for remote collaboration because database access, dashboard reviews and documentation can be handled online. On-site sessions can still be useful for requirements workshops, training and agreeing on shared metric definitions, especially when German-language communication is important.
Ask a Metabase freelancer to explain how they validate metrics, structure models, manage permissions and investigate slow queries. Review a relevant dashboard or walkthrough and look for clear documentation, reproducible SQL and an understanding of the underlying data rather than visual effects alone.
Metabase can be used to embed dashboards and questions into applications, with access controls suited to the product design. A specialist should clarify authentication, tenant isolation, customization, query performance and the boundary between customer-facing views and internal reporting.
Before starting with Metabase, clarify the database structure, data freshness, metric ownership, user groups and delivery expectations. Freelancers should also confirm whether the work involves an existing deployment, cloud hosting, permissions redesign, SQL cleanup, dashboard creation or embedded analytics.
