ABOUT SANDRA ROGGOW
When technically brilliant teams fail, it\'s rarely about the code. As a Senior Product Owner (Lead Consultant) with an entrepreneurial mindset and deep technical fluency, I empower platform teams to unlock innovation. I take end-to-end ownership of complex digital products, from vision to delivery. My expertise lies in bridging the gap between business and technology, enabling cross-functional teams to do their best work. My agile mindset was significantly shaped at Thoughtworks, where I learned to combine user-centric thinking, technical feasibility, and a sense of social responsibility. I build and foster high-performing teams by promoting psychological safety, encouraging continuous improvement, and cultivating a culture of collaboration in distributed, remote-first setups. I bring extensive experience from fast-paced agile environments (Lean, Extreme Programming, Kanban, Scrum), working closely with cross-functional teams and stakeholders to align product decisions with business goals. Key Expertise & Focus Areas: • Product Strategy & Product-Led Growth • Identity & Access Management (IAM), Process Automation • Data-driven UX Optimization & Component-based Website Relaunches • Agile Leadership & Team Enablement As the founder of Kitchennerds, I led product development from ideation to launch and successfully scaled it across five cities, a formative experience in sustainable development and leadership. My studies in Business Computer Science, combined with my distinguished thesis,\"Generative AI in Software Delivery — Analysis and comparison of human-human pair programming with and without additional AI assistance using GitHub Copilot\"(based on a field experiment with my former software delivery team at Thoughtworks), underscore my passion for innovative technology. Beyond my core role, I am a proud co-founder of reher*sal (a speaker training conference for FLINTA in Tech), a public speaker on Women in Tech & Digitalization, and a mentor for early-stage founders. I am deeply convinced that only diverse teams with a clear vision can create digital products that truly make a difference. I\'m eager to connect and discuss innovative product development, trustworthy tech leadership, and the future of AI in agile software delivery.
