Summary
Paul Bae is a founder and software engineer with 11 years of experience building production systems and AI-driven products, currently based in New York. He has led engineering and product efforts at Amazon and Stripe, shipping recommendation systems, accounts APIs, and AI Shopping Guides, and has repeatedly returned to founding early-stage startups focused on applied AI and personalized healthcare. His recent ventures include DeepDive AI (data analysis and visualization) and Rehabbit (personalized physical therapy), demonstrating a pattern of turning ML research into user-facing tools. Comfortable alternating between hands-on engineering and leadership, he favors shipping fast and iterating, and prefers being reached by email rather than LinkedIn.

An understated builder who often stays off social feeds, he prioritizes building useful things over publicity.
