Summary
Mikhail Zinov is a senior mobile engineer and platform architect with 11 years of experience building high‑scale iOS and cross‑platform systems from Tokyo. He has led mobile architecture and developer-experience improvements at Mercari and Grab, integrating Flutter into large native codebases, speeding CI/CD, and automating costly migrations (Xcode → Bazel). As a founding engineer he shortened product-delivery loops through CI, tooling, and disciplined processes, and at SmartNews delivered retention-improving onboarding features. Comfortable across Swift, Objective-C, Dart/Flutter and backend tooling, he blends hands-on implementation with developer tooling and build-system expertise. An applied-math graduate, he pairs pragmatic engineering with a knack for shaving minutes off tests and months off migrations to boost team velocity.
