Bekir Akın
I specialize in building and modernizing mobile applications that carry real product traffic, legacy constraints, and complex integration requirements. My strongest area is the Apple ecosystem: Swift, SwiftUI, UIKit, Objective-C modernization, iOS/tvOS architecture, AVFoundation, async/await, Actors, Observation, Combine, and state-driven UI.
Recent work includes leading SwiftUI migration and architecture modernization for major Turkish media apps such as PuhuTV, Star TV, NTV, and NTVSpor. I have also delivered FinTech and crypto product work involving KYC onboarding, secure local persistence, Apple Pay integration, transactional PDF generation, WebSocket market data, reporting modules, and regulated user journeys.
Beyond iOS, I have practical production experience with Flutter/Dart, Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, Android Jetpack, Hilt, Coroutines, ExoPlayer, Realm, CoreData, Firebase, AppsFlyer, Google IMA, and Google Ads Manager. I am strongest in roles where a team needs a senior mobile engineer who can own architecture, unblock feature delivery, modernize legacy code, and communicate clearly with product, design, backend, and QA teams.
