Hi, I am Sören.

I am a digital product manager and consultant who loves technology and innovation. I have been working at the intersection of business and technology for 15+ years.

My background is in computer science, business, and digital media. I have worked as an engineer, founded a Web 2.0 tech start-up, and worked as a management consultant in digital strategy & transformation.

Currently, I lead product teams at the tech scale-up trivago in various product areas with a focus on artificial intelligence.

I’m located in Düsseldorf, Germany.

Happy to connect with you via E-Mail or LinkedIn. I occasionally take on coaching and consulting gigs on the side. You can also find me on the mentor platform MentorCruise.
