About Simon Lee

Real Estate Tech Founder x Real Estate Agent

I help students and young professionals with streamlined rental platform.

I’m a technology-driven problem solver passionate about building digital products that make everyday life smarter and simpler.

My professional focus lies at the intersection of product management, UX design, and real estate innovation, where I create solutions that bridge human needs and data-driven technology.

As the Founder of Ellieo, an AI-powered roommate-matching and rental platform for students and young professionals in New York City, I lead the company’s product strategy, design direction, and marketing initiatives. Ellieo’s mission is to simplify the housing search process through verified listings, trusted matches, and a community-first approach — combining real estate expertise with modern AI.

My background blends product development, startup operations, and cross-functional collaboration. I’ve managed projects from concept to launch, turning research insights into scalable digital experiences. I enjoy working with teams that value innovation, empathy, and precision — translating complex user pain points into seamless product solutions. Areas of interest include PropTech, AI applications in housing, digital marketplaces, and user-centric product strategy.

I’m always eager to learn new frameworks, explore emerging technologies, and collaborate with creative, mission-driven people shaping the future of urban living. Driven by curiosity, I believe great products start with empathy, grow through iteration, and succeed through trust.
