• Develop and enhance CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions/Workflows) for application and mobile deployments.
• Partner closely with QA to integrate testing and validation within build and release pipelines.
• Implement monitoring, logging, metrics, and alerting frameworks for full observability.

• Ensure continued compliance with PCI-DSS, and contribute to SOC 2 and ISO 27001 alignment.
