AI Initiatives: identifying and promoting practical Artificial Intelligence use cases across the IT department
As Interim Head of IT for a German medium-sized industrial distributor, I am responsible for 31 IT employees and lead the digital and organizational transformation, reporting directly to executive leadership. I took over an IT department with almost no basic structures – no clear roles, processes, documentation or ticket system – and with significant technical debt that tied up most of its capacity. Introduced agile principles and ways of working in the IT organization and transformed the traditionally structured IT department into cross-functional Scrum and Kanban teams focused on transparency, collaboration, and customer value delivery.
Redesigned the entire IT organization by establishing a modern operating model, introducing new roles such as Product Owner, Scrum Master and Solution Architect and strengthening the organization through strategic hiring and targeted capability development. Recruited and onboarded Agile Coaches to accelerate the transformation and personally managed and coached Scrum Masters as well as IT department leaders to foster servant leadership, self-management and a culture of continuous improvement.
Aligned IT-internal planning across eight teams to three Flight Levels based on Klaus Leopold (strategy, coordination, team), laying the foundation for later company-wide portfolio management. Consolidated the backlog of more than 10 workstreams and prioritized it by business value and cost of delay. Introduced a ticketing system to increase transparency and enable data-driven decision-making, flow-based work management, and greater accountability at all levels.
Established and supported multiple cross-functional teams, including the Operational Core (ERP) domain with dedicated streams for Support, Feature Development and ERP Migration, as well as teams responsible for Warehouse Operations, Maintenance & Operations (M&O) including system engineering and security, Modern Workplace, Data Quality and integration initiatives. Worked closely with Agile Coaches to support team development, remove impediments, and continuously improve delivery effectiveness.
Acted as Interim Product Owner for the operation and enhancement of the existing ERP landscape while supporting the ERP migration as a Project Manager. Reorganized the project organization and had the already negotiated contract with the implementation partner realigned with a focus on approach and overall responsibility; Phase 1 (financial accounting) has been live since October 2025. Collaborated with the selected implementation partner to design and establish the project organization and target operating model for the ERP transformation, introducing agile delivery structures and ways of working. Facilitated the alignment between business, IT and the external vendor and played a key role in negotiating the contractual framework and delivery model to ensure a sustainable foundation for the transformation program.
Initiated the strategic modernization of the workplace environment through the adoption of Microsoft 365 cloud capabilities, establishing the foundation for enhanced collaboration, scalability and future digital services.
Launched AI initiatives to identify practical business use cases and promote the responsible adoption of Artificial Intelligence across the IT department. Encouraged self-management and empowered teams to take ownership of decisions, delivery and continuous improvement.

About the technology
Commerce foundation
SAP Commerce Cloud is an enterprise commerce suite for complex B2C, B2B, and composable commerce journeys. Formerly known as SAP Hybris, it supports product catalogs, pricing, promotions, carts, orders, customer accounts, and omnichannel experiences. Companies use it when commerce must connect closely with ERP, customer data, and fulfillment processes.
Core capabilities
The platform covers the full path from product information to post-purchase service. Strong specialists shape solutions such as:
- B2B account structures, approval flows, quotes, and contract pricing
- B2C storefronts, promotions, search, checkout, and order management
- Headless commerce APIs and tailored frontends
- Multi-site, multi-language, and multi-currency commerce operations
- Customer service tools and assisted selling workflows
Ecosystem and tooling
SAP Commerce Cloud projects often involve Spartacus, OCC APIs, and the SAP Commerce accelerator framework. They may also connect with SAP S/4HANA, SAP Customer Experience products, SAP Integration Suite, payment providers, tax services, search tools, and external product information systems. Relevant work includes Java and Spring, extension development, impex, FlexibleSearch, Solr, REST APIs, CI/CD, cloud operations, and frontend frameworks such as Angular.
When expertise matters
Companies bring in freelance specialists when a commerce rollout needs focused delivery or when an existing implementation has become difficult to change. This is common during migrations from on-premise Hybris, global template rollouts, replatforming, performance work, and integrations with SAP or third-party systems. In Germany, teams may combine remote delivery with on-site workshops and expect clear communication in English or German.
Delivery responsibilities
A SAP Commerce Cloud specialist may define the solution structure, configure business processes, extend the platform, or lead a specific delivery stream. Typical assignments include catalog and pricing models, checkout changes, data migration, API design, storefront work, integration testing, release preparation, and production support. The right scope depends on whether the project needs architecture, hands-on implementation, or targeted troubleshooting.
Signs of quality
Strong professionals understand both commerce operations and the platform’s extension model. They keep customizations maintainable, protect upgrade paths, and test business rules across channels. Look for specialists who can explain trade-offs clearly, document integrations, work with product and operations teams, and show how they handled performance, security, data quality, and reliable releases in SAP Commerce Cloud.
Frequently asked questions
What clients ask us most about SAP Commerce Cloud — answered in short.
SAP Commerce Cloud is used to run complex B2C and B2B commerce operations across web, mobile, and assisted sales channels. It manages catalogs, pricing, promotions, carts, orders, customer accounts, and integrations with enterprise systems.
SAP Commerce Cloud is often considered when a company needs deep SAP integration, complex B2B processes, or multi-market commerce capabilities. Adobe Commerce can be a strong alternative for teams seeking a broad PHP-based ecosystem and flexible extension model, so the choice depends on existing systems, operating model, and delivery needs.
A strong SAP Commerce Cloud specialist commonly works with Java, Spring, Angular, OCC APIs, Spartacus, Solr, impex, FlexibleSearch, and CI/CD practices. Experience with SAP S/4HANA, SAP Integration Suite, payment services, product information management, and cloud operations is also valuable.
The right level depends on the assignment rather than a fixed number of years. SAP Commerce Cloud migration, architecture, and performance work usually require someone who has handled comparable enterprise complexity, while a well-scoped extension or frontend task may suit a specialist with narrower platform experience.
SAP Commerce Cloud projects can often be delivered remotely because configuration, code, testing, and documentation are handled through shared tools. On-site workshops may still help with process discovery, stakeholder alignment, or sensitive rollout phases, and teams should agree on German and English communication needs early.
Ask how the specialist approaches custom extensions, upgrades, integrations, testing, and production incidents. A capable SAP Commerce Cloud professional can connect technical choices to catalog, pricing, checkout, fulfillment, and customer-service requirements.
SAP Commerce Cloud is a strong fit when commerce involves multiple markets, complex product rules, B2B purchasing structures, or close SAP integration. A simpler system may be more suitable for a small catalog and limited checkout flow where enterprise customization would add unnecessary effort.
Freelancers usually want a clear scope, access to relevant environments, defined ownership, and realistic release expectations. Work with SAP Commerce Cloud is more effective when product, commerce operations, integration, and technical stakeholders agree on priorities and acceptance criteria.
