Simon Davies

I'm a hands-on creative-technical experience leader with 20+ years shaping digital products.

Currently Director of Experience at Born Group, where I blend my technical and business expertese with a human-centered design philosophy to serve creative, content, and commerce projects. Based in London.

Prior to that, I directed front-end development at Portaltech Reply. I've scaled teams through acquisitions twice—once at Portaltech and again at Born. Now applying my creative/technical passions toward new AI ventures, including Crux (launching late 2025)—helping designers build thoughtful products in a post-AI era.

I'm invested in embodied AI and energy innovation, and love music and play drums. Reach out to discuss design, technology, music, or AI roles / projects, or startups.
