Freelance Senior Product Manager (German-speaking, Remote-first)

Description

Position at MVP Factory Technologies GmbH

Freelance Senior Product Manager (German-speaking, Remote-first)

12-week engagement starting ASAP

We’re looking for a freelance Senior Product Manager to join an ongoing, fast-moving B2B SaaS build — focused on enabling professionals to improve their digital presence through intelligent insights and content recommendations. The project is in the MVP implementation phase, with a strong foundation already laid during discovery and design.

You’ll join a dedicated cross-functional delivery team and take end-to-end ownership of product execution, stakeholder management, and team coordination. Most of the backlog is already shaped — now it’s about steering the team through the next 12 weeks to deliver a market-ready product.

What You’ll Do

• Own delivery from week 1 – drive structure, rituals, and priorities across design, engineering, and data.
• Align stakeholders – be the main point of contact for the client, ensuring transparency and trust through clear communication and expectation management.
• Ensure executional clarity – break down scope into manageable chunks and remove blockers before they escalate.
• Facilitate collaboration – work closely with the engineering and design leads to align on implementation, edge cases, and trade-offs.
• Balance pragmatism and product quality – help the team find realistic paths to deliver a user-ready product that’s stable, intuitive, and extensible.

Setup & Collaboration

• Duration: ~12 weeks, starting as soon as possible
• Language: Fluent/native German required (client-facing role)
• Location: Remote-first with occasional on-site alignment in Berlin (approx. 2–3 in-person sessions total)
• Team: Experienced designer, AI/backend engineer, frontend engineer, and engagement lead already staffed

What You Bring

• Strong background in digital product delivery, ideally in startup or agency environments
• Ability to work independently and take full ownership of delivery structure, clarity, and communication
• Excellent stakeholder management skills – clear, honest, and pragmatic
• Fluency in German and proficiency in English
• Familiarity with AI- or data-enabled product development is a plus
• Experience with mobile app delivery (iOS-focused) a bonus
