My name is Opemipo Aikomo.
I'm a designer, software engineer and entrepreneur.
I was employee #1 at Paystack, an online payments company acquired by Stripe in 2020. I led design and product for eight years, helping define an infrastructure layer for the software industry in Africa.
I'm currently building HIFI, a financial technology startup in the US. I lead Design and the Engineering team.
Moonlight is my studio practice, and how I organise my passion projects. I run it with my partner, Princess.
Through the studio, I build creative infrastructure in Nigeria — sustainable models for art production.
For example, E Dey Happen, a multi-year collaboration to establish a global animated series. We've helped to fund, produce and distribute the show.
Or Ajasa Makerspace — a clay and 3D printing facility in Lagos Island.
I've been blogging since 2011. I write about my life, travels, work and everything between. Browse stories
I also write about the studio.
