Andreas Haupt

I skyrocket digital products.

About

I create digital products. I also lead product and web/app development teams.

We live in thrilling times: On the brink to a new world order with cryptocurrencies getting part of the political fintech discourse, remote working cultures fueling startups but also even the largest enterprises, the female shift becoming a megatrend and artificial intelligence together with blockchain technology slowly morphing from marketing to use-case terms.

Where others see risks of potential disruptions I believe in chances for the world to improve based on businesses that succeed to leverage those challenges of our time.

With trends, technology and persuasion in my heart I help companies to achieve right this.

I had a great pleasure working with Andreas. He is a highly skilled product/UX person who helped us driving the list of long-waited cool features into production. Smart, engaged, focused, structured, with an excellent perception of a product's vision and roadmap. Besides those talents and proficiency - Andreas was able to set up an open, transparent and robust connection with every team member. The latter proves again unique leadership qualities Andreas has. Highly recommend!

Andreas has broken new ground as Lead Product Owner of yomo. In his function he has brought together various actors and interests of the S-Finanzgruppe. Together we have raised customer-centric product development to a new level in cross-location, cross-functional and cross-company teams with new ways of working and new working methods.

Working with Andreas was always a pleasure – not only is he an experienced product person with broad knowledge in product management, design and technology, he is also great to get along with. No matter if he was in charge of transforming the company from waterfall to agile or leading the way to a new product generation, Andreas found the right approach to get the right things done.
