# Nikhil Gandhi
SVP of Engineering at Yahoo Mail, rebuilding the personal inbox with AI.

## About

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.
