Jorge G. Ezquerra
I’m a product expert and leader with over 12 years of experience in the gaming industry, passionate about driving growth, innovation, and player engagement. My journey has taken me from hands-on product management to executive leadership, where I’ve consistently delivered measurable results for mobile, PC, and blockchain games.
I’ve had the privilege of leading teams and projects at companies like Kongregate, where I doubled daily active users for flagship titles, tripled revenue for key games, and implemented data-driven strategies that improved retention, monetization, and overall player experience. As a consultant, I’ve helped studios boost IAP and IAA revenue, raise retention rates, and launch games that climbed into the top download charts.
My expertise covers product strategy, live operations, P&L management, market analysis, and team development. With a background in business administration, marketing, and economics, I blend analytical thinking with creative problem-solving to deliver value for both players and stakeholders.
A gamer at heart, I’m fluent in English and Spanish, with basic French, and I’m always eager to mentor teams, explore emerging technologies like AI and Web3, and build products that delight users and drive business success.

“I had the chance to work with Jorge for several years at Kongregate, where I managed him and watched him grow into a strong, well-rounded product leader. When we first started working together, Jorge was already a data-driven PM with a deep understanding of live ops and the F2P playbook. Over time, he developed into a great manager who genuinely cares about his team and their growth. Jorge is he’s great with data, analytics, and making smart decisions to optimize products. His passion for live ops and knack for optimizing products really stand out, but what I appreciated the most was see him find become the kind of manager people trust—he listens, supports, and helps his team level up"

“Jorge was the first person I directly managed in the video games industry, and I am extremely proud of how he has evolved and come to be a great leader.
From the very beginning he embraced the business aspects of video games, and combined it with his own gaming background, turned into extremely strong value for the titles he worked on. He is analytical, dedicated, focused, easy to work with, and very good at establishing the right relationships with the teams. This combination of traits and the results it brought made him a critical member of the Live Ops team, further growing his talent, even in unfamiliar genres.
All in all, Jorge is able to adapt to many different products and multicultural teams effectively, driving value while always being easy to work with. He is a major asset to any company he works with, and I would highly recommend him.”
Christopher Fady - Director of Product at Electronic Arts
“Jorge was my manager and mentor throughout my time at Kongregate, and is easily one of the most hardworking and intelligent individuals I know. When it comes to product, Jorge is a wealth of knowledge, and I will forever be thankful for his teachings and guiding that has accelerated my career growth.
In addition to his aptitude, Jorge is a sincere manager who listens to his subordinates with an open heart. This is why I could always be honest with him when it came to concerns or feedback, of which he always took the time to address. Due to his support, I was able to advance my career in the direction I desired - towards a data-oriented slant.
Jorge will make a great contribution to any team with his strong product sense, tenacity, and passion. I sincerely admire his work ethic and his problem solving skills, and hope to work with him again one day in the future!”
Vienna Chan - Product Manager at Crazy Maple Studio
“Jorge exceeded our expectations. When he came to consult at ABI we never expected to see our IAP revenue grow 50% in one month, or our D1 retention increase 60% in so little time.
His data driven approach and problem-solving skills really made a difference and taught us about how to look at data and use it to improve our retention and monetization. His deep knowledge of Live Operations and monetization strategies completely changed our perspective about these topics as well.
We learned so much from him. Thank you Jorge!”
