Summary
Mikhail Akopov is a seasoned iOS developer with over a decade of experience building native apps, SDKs, and games, currently freelancing from Tallinn. He has led small mobile teams and owned end-to-end mobile products—most recently as Mobile Lead at Blocktrade where he combined engineering, product ownership, and architecture for a regulated crypto platform. His background spans mobile SDK development (GetID), backend microservices, OpenAPI schema design, CI/CD, and business-metrics visualization in Metabase/Grafana, so he comfortably bridges mobile and backend concerns. He also has entrepreneurial experience shipping consumer apps and games (including popular indie titles and tools) and knows ASO, localization into 30+ languages, and gathering requirements from nontechnical stakeholders. Notably, he’s equally at home writing production iOS code and setting up the analytics and APIs that make product decisions data-driven.
