• Deep expertise in identity protocols, including mandatory hands-on experience with OAuth 2.1 and OpenID Connect (OIDC) implementation and best practices.

• Proven experience with implementing sophisticated access control models, such as ReBAC, ABAC, or RBAC, ideally in a large-scale, microservices environment.

• Experience with identity provisioning and synchronization protocols like SCIM.

• Proficiency in at least one major cloud platform (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP) and containerization technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes).

• Strong command of at least one modern programming language suitable for backend services (e.g., Go, Python).

• Experience integrating identity features into frontend applications (e.g., React, Vue, Angular) and handling secure session management and MFA implementation.
