Summary
Oliver Ganz is a Zurich-based technology leader and entrepreneur with 13 years of experience building user-centered products and teams. As co-founder and longtime CTO/CPO of TestingTime, he scaled a niche platform that has recruited thousands of targeted test users across Europe, helping companies embed UX research into product development. He combines a Master’s in Computer Science with hands-on engineering experience from roles at Doodle and Amazee Labs, spanning backend systems to product strategy. Now serving as a board member at docbox – Visionary AG, he brings both technical depth and a practical understanding of how recruitment speed (often under 72 hours) materially reduces time, cost, and risk for research programs. Known for focusing the team on what they do best—precise participant recruitment rather than running studies—he thrives at the intersection of engineering, product, and user research. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic builder who turns complex research needs into operationally reliable solutions.
