Akash Garg is CTO at MoonPay.

I'm a transformative executive technology leader with 18 years of experience leading software engineering and business efforts that support corporate growth strategies and initiatives. My work centers on driving unprecedented growth within emerging technology environments. 

Most recently I served as the founding CTO of Afterpay US where I led the technology and product teams until the acquisition of the company by Block (formerly Square) in 2022. 

Prior to that, as a Director of Engineering at Uber, I led all of the technology products that the 3.5+ million Drivers use every day. This includes onboarding, compliance, driving experience and vehicle access via rentals and fleets. 

As Senior Director of Engineering for Twitter's Growth team, I've led teams that have delivered tens of millions of active users to Twitter. I also co-founded and developed a social networking site that emerged as one of the largest social networking sites in the world prior to its sale in 2011. 

An exceptional leader and motivating manager, I'm highly skilled at recruiting, building and leading high-performing teams to accomplish impressive feats in a short period of time. I also possess a natural ability to assemble the right resources to move complex projects through to successful completion, on time and to budget.

Key strengths include: technology leadership, software development, growth strategies, user acquisition, scalability, mobile apps, program / project management and emerging markets.
