Description

I am based in Spain and work fluently in English, collaborating remotely with clients across Germany, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the Nordics.

I support companies in establishing and scaling strategic partnerships globally, expanding into new markets, and aligning their product strategy with business outcomes and thus, creating real value for customers, partners, and teams.

With 9+ years of experience in high-growth environments such as Volkswagen Software Development Center, BMW Group (Digital Charging Solutions), SEAT:CODE, and cross-industry joint ventures, I bring deep expertise in B2B/B2B2C business development, product ownership, and agile leadership.

Closed six-figure partnership deals with major players like AUDI AG
Successfully launched digital B2B products across multiple European markets (including the DACH region and Nordics)
Led cross-functional agile teams (developers, designers, product, legal) to deliver strategic innovations
Worked directly with C-level stakeholders and represented companies at global events
Gave keynotes on Psychological Safety in High-Performance Teams and moderated global IT leadership summits

What sets me apart is the ability to combine strategic clarity with emotional intelligence, entrepreneurial drive with strong communication, and execution power with a deep understanding of human systems.

I am currently available for freelance or interim projects in:

Strategic Partnerships & Growth (Fintech, SaaS, Innovation Hubs)
Go-to-Market Strategy / Product Development
Digital Business Model Innovation or MVP Development

My goal is to work with companies that value clarity, purpose, and sustainable growth. I thrive where strategy meets implementation, and where fun, psychological safety, and collaboration create an unstoppable team.

Let’s build something meaningful together.
