Paul-Simon Emechebe

I’m 24 and a 2× founder. I’ve served as CTO twice, first helping an early startup backed by angel investors reach 50 paying customers (2021), then leading a university-focused food delivery startup before shutting it down due to bad unit economics (2022).

From 2023 to early 2025, I ran a small software agency ($70k ARR) building custom e-commerce systems. I'm currently building Sakura, an autonomous organization that runs an ecommerce business with no human-in-the-loop.

I'm also the host of The Paul-Simon Podcast, a podcast where i get to talk to very interesting people in the field of AI Check it out here.

On the side i'm working on drone tech that uses FOPEN / FOLPEN (Foliage-Penetrating Radar) to catch terrorists in forests, literally. My paper on it
