Conversion Optimization, Shopify Headless, Hydrogen, Storyblok, Mixpanel

2024 - Now

Accessories for dogs and cats from Bielefeld. A family business since 1980, around 170 employees, production mostly in Germany. I'm responsible for the ongoing conversion optimization of the online store. Every decision is backed by Mixpanel data. New features from the product page through to checkout I implement myself.

Greenic Bio

Greenic Bio

Conversion Optimization, UX Consulting, Shopify

2026

Organic superfoods, whey and collagen from a family business with over 20 years of industry experience. The starting point: a shop performing below its potential. I analyzed user behaviour and structure, rethought the UX and fundamentally rebuilt the shop.

SMINA

SMINA

Headless E-Commerce, Shopify, React, Refactoring

2024

SMINA is building the medical supply store of the future – individually tailored aids for clinics, care facilities and home use, available in more than 200 partner branches. I supported the internal dev team on their headless Shopify storefront and fundamentally refactored the codebase. The result: faster pages, an architecture the team actually understands, and a much shorter path from idea to launch.

Rummel Matratzen

Rummel Mattresses

Shopify Headless

2024

Rummel Matratzen has been manufacturing high-quality mattresses in Bavaria since 1948 – a product that needs explaining before it sells online. I built them a custom headless Shopify storefront: fast product pages, a structure that guides customers through the choice, and a foundation their direct sales can grow on.

Focus Areas

Shopify & E-Commerce Strategy

As a Shopify expert I build and maintain themes, custom apps and storefronts – and advise where assortment, pricing logic and roadmap decide revenue.

Conversion Optimization (CRO)

Analysis, hypotheses, tests: I optimize product pages, checkout and campaign landing pages along real data instead of gut feeling – measurable in conversion rate and revenue.

Hydrogen & Headless

Headless storefronts with Hydrogen, Next.js and Storyblok – a decoupled frontend, full design freedom and measurably faster load times.

Technical SEO

Indexing, structured data, Core Web Vitals and a clean information architecture – so Shopify stores and headless storefronts actually get found.

User Experience (UX)

Understand user behaviour, find friction, simplify journeys: I design navigation, product pages and checkout so customers find what they're looking for faster – and are happier to buy.
