  • Applying both explorative and evaluative User Research and UCD (User-Centered Design) techniques, e.g. User Interviews and Usability Testings, Card Sorting, Paper Prototyping etc.
  • Synthesizing UX artifacts from the research and analysis phase, e.g. in the form of Personas, Use Cases or User Journeys, to establish the UX strategy.
  • Preparation, conduction and evaluation of various workshop formats.


  • Gathering, analyzing and refining functional requirements - with stakeholders and key specialist departments, as well as designers and developers.
  • Fleshing out wireframes as key process artifacts - generally in iterative, interdisciplinary loops. Using Axure RP team projects, Sketch with InVision, Adobe XD or Figma.
  • Establishing component libraries, template systems and UX workflows for consistency and synergies, especially pivotal in the context of large-scale projects and scattered teams.
  • Building interactive prototypes - from lo-fi to hi-fi elaborations, e.g. with Axure RP.


  • Framing thorough concept documentation and specification - if required by the IT.
  • Extracting and defining the minimum viable product (MVP) from the vision concept - alternatively enhancing the MVP towards product vision.
