Mm.. it's a bit different. I'm a female game dev working in one of my country's bigger studios, and I'm one of two women who touches code (aka, software engineer/developer). Out of the whole company of ~300 people, there are only ~50 women. Most of those are artists, designers, QA, production, audio, HR , or other higher ups in the company.

It's no secret that they're desperately trying to get more female engineers on board, but there's just a huge shortage of tech talent where I live, and a lot of women are driven off from game dev because of the reactions and treatment that are so typical of the environment. Even getting here, everything has been very male-dominated through my entire career; women in tech just aren't as common for countless reasons.

I'd love to see statistics for some of the really big companies, actually.
