Summary
Abhishek Garg is an engineering manager with 8 years of hands-on and leadership experience building large-scale consumer and enterprise systems, currently leading Netflix’s Kids Games and Discovery engineering to deliver cross-platform experiences on mobile, TV, and web. He’s driving the launch of Playground, Netflix’s central Kids Games mobile app, while architecting unified catalog and discovery backends to connect global audiences to games. Previously he scaled live-ops at Pocket Gems—helping War Dragons surpass $500M in lifetime revenue—and built Bidgely’s SaaS platform that supported 10M+ active users while cutting infrastructure costs and accelerating onboarding. Comfortable in both backend and mobile domains, he combines operational rigor in live products with rapid delivery of new platforms (e.g., shipping a web platform 40% ahead of schedule). An MBA from Berkeley Haas complements his technical roots from NIT Kurukshetra, giving him a product-oriented view of engineering tradeoffs. Practical, metrics-driven, and product-focused, he’s as likely to tune Cassandra clusters as to shape roadmap tradeoffs for consumer-facing games.
