Those who know Simo, 39, credit her intense ambition, political savvy and consumer instincts for her success in the industry. Simo climbed the ranks at Meta Platforms Inc. until she ran Facebook. Later, as chief executive officer of Instacart, she transformed the grocery delivery business from a money-losing startup to a growing, profitable public company.
