Nikhil Gandhi

Nikhil Gandhi leads global engineering, product, and design for Yahoo Mail. His work focuses on modernizing core messaging infrastructure and building artificial intelligence tools to transform the inbox from a reactive list into an active assistant.

Before Yahoo, he headed engineering for TikTok’s Ads Platform, shaping their monetization systems and creator tools. He also spent a decade at Apple, scaling the engineering architecture behind the Apple Online Store.

He frequently speaks about the “98% problem”—how people ignore almost all their email—and how to restore utility to our communications.
