Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSimon B is a product-driven founder and CEO with 11 years of experience building user-focused web tools, currently leading YouShare, a Chrome extension that reimagines YouTube discovery by letting friends browse and share each other’s homepages. He blends digital strategy training with hands-on front-end and extension development—rooted in BEM methodologies and TYPO3 experience—to ship features that respect privacy by default while enabling viral, one-click sharing. Based in Wuppertal, he leverages multilingual and international marketing background (English–Japanese LEA) to design community experiences that appeal across cultures. Simon is as comfortable sketching UX flows as he is coordinating a small startup team to iterate quickly on product-market fit. A detail that sets him apart: he focuses on “passive sharing” of recommendation algorithms to surface serendipitous content without forcing social noise. His mission is to make content discovery on YouTube more social, creator-friendly, and privacy-conscious.
