Senior Product Owner & AI Builder

Mikołaj Lewandowski

I turn ambiguous problems into shipped products — with enterprise teams, with AI, and from scratch.

About

Portrait of Mikołaj Lewandowski
Wrocław · 2026

I'm a Polish Product Owner with 13 years in IT and 11+ years in product, Agile, and Scrum roles. I have led product delivery across enterprise SaaS, fintech, automotive, retail, banking, FMCG, pharma, and healthcare — for clients like ATOS, Fluke, Kaczmarski Group, CARIAD, Ahold Delhaize, UBS, Heineken, Roche, and Coloplast.

For the last year I've been building my own AI-native SaaS products — ZenDOM, Rytmind, and Homeochild — using Claude, Lovable, and Cursor as core tools. I own the full stack: product strategy, UX, development, monetization, and growth.
AI isn't a line on my CV. It's how I work every day.

Who I work with

I've worked across every level of an organization — from C-suite and company owners to factory floor operators and offshore delivery teams.

Executive & ownership level

Business vision, investment decisions, product strategy. At Kaczmarski Group (WinGO.pl), I worked directly with company owners and board-level stakeholders to shape the product concept and business model from scratch.

Management & cross-regional teams

At Atos, I collaborated with managers and representatives across Europe to build the GDC Europe capabilities portal, aligning stakeholders from multiple countries around a shared product vision.

Enterprise clients at every level

At Fluke (eMaint X5), I engaged directly with client-side directors, plant managers, maintenance supervisors, and operators working on factory floors. Understanding the gap between what leadership wanted and what people actually needed in the field was core to the job.

Agile teams & transformation stakeholders

As an Agile Coach at DXC/Luxoft, I gathered requirements and drove change across departments, teams, and individuals — translating organizational pain into actionable ways of working.

Enterprise transformation & program coordination

Examples of multi-stakeholder programs where I sat at the center of executive, external, and delivery layers.

Kaczmarski Group

Led a company-wide transformation program working directly with the full board of directors, internal business units, IBM (technical implementation) and EY (financial planning and legal advisory). I was the central coordination point across all workstreams — managing alignment between executive leadership, external consultants, and operational teams simultaneously.

CARIAD (Volkswagen Group / Porsche)

Served as Deputy Program Manager coordinating 21 projects and teams within the Autonomous Driving domain. I worked daily with department leadership across CARIAD, managing program reporting, risk tracking, PO ordering, and quarterly invoicing. My stakeholders ranged from department directors at VW and Porsche to cross-functional delivery teams across Europe.

“From factory floors to Volkswagen boardrooms — I've managed stakeholders at every level, in every context.”

Thinking out loud

I write about product ownership, AI-native workflows, and building things from scratch.

Skipping PI Planning prep (in SAFe) is like building a house without blueprints

As a Product Owner, I’ve seen how critical preparation is for a successful PI Planning event. It’s the heartbeat of the ART — from training newcomers and refreshing processes to keeping a well-maintained Program Board. Skip the prep, and you gamble with delivery, alignment, and team engagement.

Definition of Outcome Done: product vs. service context

The same PO title can mean completely different levers and constraints. In a pure product environment, outcome ownership is part of survival. In a service or contracting model, shifting the conversation from “when will it be ready?” to “how will we know it made a difference?” takes deliberate effort — but it can be a game changer.

When silence breaks the sprint

The real blockers aren’t always in Jira — sometimes they’re unspoken in the room. Hidden maintenance load, fear of sounding negative, and a lack of psychological safety can quietly derail delivery. Visible work, honest pulse checks, and reserved capacity for the unplanned turn a communication problem back into a manageable one.

"I Don’t Know… Yet" – The Power of Admitting Uncertainty

Great products don’t come from having all the answers on day one. They come from asking the right people, doing the research, testing ideas, and timeboxing decisions. Saying "I don’t know… yet" creates space for better solutions, stronger collaboration, and momentum that beats overthinking every time.

Let's build something.

I'm open to Senior PO roles, Agile Coaching, AI Product Consulting, and short or long-term B2B contracts. If you have a hard problem and need someone who ships — let's talk.
