Dennis Hohmann

Product Manager.

Product management is more than just a job to me. It’s a passion that drives me every single day.

Since my childhood, the world of IT has been home to me. Thanks to my quick grasp of new concepts, I’ve always found it easy to understand new technologies. My boundless curiosity and genuine enjoyment of what I do mean that work rarely feels like work. I love solving complex challenges with creative solutions while striking the perfect balance between customer focus and business goals.

My agile mindset allows me to respond effectively to our volatile world — not just accepting change, but actively shaping it. To me, agility isn’t just about flexibility; it’s about focus, clarity, and a constant drive for improvement — always with the product and the people who use it at heart.

With focus and efficient communication, I’m able to bring projects to life and turn product ideas into reality. In doing so, I strive to create a smooth and pleasant connection between stakeholders, development teams, and customers.

Tools.

Over the past few years, I’ve had the chance to work with a wide range of tools — some became long-term companions, others were exciting short-term encounters. Each one has sharpened my perspective on product development, design, analytics, or collaboration in its own way.

Ich habe Figma genutzt, um Wireframes, UI-Mockups und interaktive Prototypen zu erstellen, insbesondere für Usability-Tests und zur Optimierung von Nutzererlebnissen.

Ich habe Miro für die Projektplanung und kollaborative Workshops genutzt, insbesondere zur Erstellung von z.B Impact Maps, Customer Journey Maps und Personas.

Ich habe Webflow genutzt, um responsive Webseiten zu erstellen, insbesondere für Prototyping und die visuelle Umsetzung von Designs ohne Code.

Ich habe Jira für das Projekt- und Task-Management genutzt, insbesondere zur Verwaltung von Sprints, User Stories und Backlogs in agilen Teams.

Ich habe Notion für die Organisation und Dokumentation genutzt, insbesondere zur Erstellung von Wissensdatenbanken und Projektplänen

Ich habe Navicat für die Verwaltung und Analyse von Datenbanken genutzt, insbesondere zur Abfrage, Bearbeitung und Migration von Daten.

Ich habe GitHub für die Versionskontrolle und kollaborative Softwareentwicklung genutzt, insbesondere zur Verwaltung von Repositories und der Zusammenarbeit über Pull Requests.
