Stay current with Apple iOS SDK, Swift, Xcode, UIKit, and new payment-related APIs (Apple Pay, Passkeys, etc.).
Work closely with security teams to address vulnerabilities and follow mobile security best practices.

Exposure to mobile CI/CD (Fastlane, Bitrise, GitHub Actions).
Contributions to open-source SDKs or payment libraries.
