You aren't alone. Plenty of "actual tech companies" don't have the tools to develop talent effectively. You're owning technical features and you're reporting to high-level leadership. That's a great spot to be in.
It sounds like you have the initiative to push your own boundaries, and that's what matters most. No matter where you are, learning starts with your willingness to learn.
I'll admit I've never been in your position precisely. I've always worked with technical people, even if not for "tech companies." But, before I had even graduated I was the only person in my entire company doing mobile dev, so I know what it feels like to be very green, and very far out on your own island. It was a great springboard. I never did mobile dev full-time again, but I experimented and explored stuff I found interesting, and the skills I learned have been invaluable to my career.
