• Hands-on experience implementing authentication.
• Strong understanding of authorization patterns: RBAC, ABAC, least privilege, separation of duties.

• Policy Management:
• Experience designing/implementing policy-based access control for APIs and services.
• Working knowledge of policy engines and approaches, policy evaluation flows, and auditability.
• Experience in modeling policies for object storage access (bucket/object-level permissions, conditions, deny rules, time-bound access).
• Experience with audit logging and traceability for policy decisions.

• 3+ Years of Experience in professional Software Development using High-Level programming languages.
• Expertise in modular software design, with an emphasis on separation of concerns and maintainable codebases.
