Hi, I’m Simo — Engineering Manager and Growth Tech Lead at Homerun Technologies, where I help shape the technology behind ProntoPro, HomeRun, and Armut. My focus: building teams and systems that scale, learn, and deliver real impact.
I thrive at the intersection of product, people, and purpose. Over the past decade, I’ve led diverse, cross-functional teams through platform overhauls, rapid experiments, and high-stakes launches — always with calm, clarity, and a belief in ownership over output. I care deeply about psychological safety, continuous learning, and making sure our solutions don’t just work, but make a difference.
What drives me? Bringing care and connection to tech — whether that means coaching engineers, running value-mapping workshops, or turning setbacks into momentum. Outside of work, I love sharing what I’ve learned about team growth and engineering leadership, and am always up for a conversation about craft beers, hiking, or the latest in tech.
Nothing here yet.
