Product owner that ships.

eCommerce · Open Source · AI

From discovery to deployment — fractional product ownership, eCommerce architecture, and AI-powered tooling. The right wheel already exists — the trick is knowing where to find it. When it doesn't, we build it. Open source made the knowledge compound. AI made it compound faster.

About

Gabi Udrescu

Whether launching from scratch or evolving a platform with millions of users — ProductOwner.ro brings a decade of shipping eCommerce software. Greenfield builds, migrations, integrations, scaling what already works. Discovery sessions map the landscape. AI-powered prototyping validates decisions cheaply before big commitments are made. Open source expertise ensures you build on proven foundations, not black boxes. By the time delivery starts, every decision has already been tested.

Here are a few skills and technologies I'm leveraging in my day to day work

  • User Story Mapping
  • Discovery & Experimentation
  • Behaviour Driven Development
  • Open Source eCommerce (Sylius, Magento, Akeneo)
  • AI-Powered Prototyping & LLM Tooling
  • Fractional Product Ownership
  • Cloud Native (K8s, Cloudflare, Azure)
  • ERP & Platform Migrations
  • CI/CD & Infrastructure as Code
  • Tinkering — if a tool exists, I've probably tried it
