What it’s like to work with me.
I’ve worked with founders, leadership teams and tech teams, tackling product, growth and organisational challenges. They’ve experienced the change I help create in different roles and situations. Here’s what stood out to them.
In their words.
A great source of inspiration, trust and motivation for the entire team.
Having Martin with us during the entire transformational change was a great source of inspiration, trust and motivation for the entire team, its setup and success. His outstanding experience in change and its specific dynamics in a product- and design-driven technological environment, as well as his trustful and well-respected personality, were key drivers of a smooth transformation, great achievements and fun throughout the entire project.
Stefan Häbich · Managing Director, Two Next
Where he brings most value is the capacity to engage, communicate and operationalize even the most complex ideas or abstract vision.
Martin is not just a high-level strategic and product thinker, he is also this people’s magnet and natural leader, a rare gem in the industry! I’ve seen him empower his teams with clarity and support, driving results and enabling them to achieve more. Working together with you, Martin, at Speedinvest Heroes was truly inspiring.
Desi Kaytazova · Senior HR Consultant, Speedinvest Heroes
I trust Martin to challenge us where it matters, not just confirm what we already think.
Over the past two years, I have worked with Martin and keep coming back to him when I want an experienced outside perspective on an important topic. That has ranged from product leadership and organisational change to growth, positioning and customer experience. Martin gets into the context quickly, challenges assumptions and brings together product, customer and business perspectives. What I value most is how clear, practical and grounded in experience his perspective is. He understands the realities of building and scaling a tech company and helps turn complex questions into better decisions and concrete next steps.
Pascal Späni · CEO and Co-Founder, BRAME AG
He is a great sparring partner for addressing concerns about complexity and effort.
Martin knows how to invest time in evaluating product ideas thoroughly. His positive approach helps everyone keep a cool head, even in difficult situations.
Stefan Schacherl · CTO, Speedinvest Heroes
Once you reflect on his key questions, you walk into a negotiation meeting with more confidence.
For early stage startups, Martin asks critical questions to make tech procurement decisions. He listens carefully and then dissects the problem in small steps. His questions display his wealth of experience in tech product management.
Darshini Waibel · Founder, Greenpertise
He often sees challenges coming before they arrive, and rather than being discouraged by them, he finds solutions or adapts the strategy.
Martin challenges the status quo and keeps a clear view of the overall situation. He does not get lost in the detail, and he notices when others do. On new development he weighs carefully whether a feature is genuinely essential, or a nice-to-have that could still bring significant revenue, or whether there are other building blocks worth concentrating on first, and he is not afraid to have that discussion. He is also an absolute team player, someone you can rely on. Even in demanding situations he brings fun into the team, motivates the people around him and keeps things light.
Lisa Thiel · COO, Speedinvest Heroes
His thoughtful guidance, strong product mindset, and positive attitude made a lasting impact on both me and the team.
Martin was an incredible support during my onboarding as Product Lead and continued to be a trusted sparring partner throughout our collaboration.
Cornelia Prenner · Product Lead, Two Next
Martin’s broad expertise and structured approach helped me deliver better results with fewer resources and in less time.
I had the pleasure of working with Martin when he was Head of Product and he was an exceptional sparring partner. His ability to ask the right and often tough questions ensured my product was always on the right track as soon as Martin joined the team.
Alexander Waldner · Product Owner, Speedinvest Heroes
In moments of overwhelm, when tasks and priorities seem daunting, he has a unique ability to bring clarity.
I have had the pleasure of knowing Martin for over ten years, and one of the first qualities that stood out to me was his exceptional ability to understand and connect with people. With a simple but impactful question, like “What’s your biggest pain?”, he reorients the focus toward what truly matters.
Cristina Racu · Product Manager, Jumio
Every decision he made was centered around understanding the user’s perspective and enhancing their experience.
I worked alongside Martin at Speedinvest Heroes, where he was Head of Product while I transitioned from DevOps Engineer to Head of Engineering. Martin’s approach to product development was always deeply user-focused. This mindset was instrumental in shaping our strategy in ways that significantly improved outcomes for our end users.
