## About

I build enterprise Identity Governance \(IGA\) and Privileged Access Management \(PAM\) capabilities end to end — from Java and Spring Boot REST APIs on the backend through to the React and Angular screens that identity administrators actually use\. Over 2\.5 years at Cross Identity I have worked across the full identity lifecycle: automating Joiner\-Mover\-Leaver provisioning and deprovisioning into Active Directory, LDAP and SaaS targets; implementing Single Sign\-On with SAML 2\.0, OAuth 2\.0 and OpenID Connect alongside MFA and Certificate\-Based Authentication; and supporting RBAC, role mining, Segregation of Duties and access certification campaigns with approval, delegation and revoke workflows\. What I most recently shipped: the Identity Service Build 2\.0 release — 21 REST endpoints covering identity CRUD, source import, attribute mapping, correlation and activity tracking, with paginated search and audit logging throughout\. It went out ahead of schedule with zero post\-release critical defects and earned a Spot Award\. Day to day I also do the unglamorous work that keeps an identity platform trustworthy: root cause analysis on recurring production issues, SQL query tuning across Oracle, MySQL and MongoDB, remediation of VAPT and code\-review security findings, unit tests and peer reviews — all inside an Agile/Scrum delivery cycle with QA, support and product\. Core areas \- IAM & Security: IGA, PAM, User Lifecycle Management, RBAC, role mining, access certification, SoD, least privilege, OWASP Top 10 \- Protocols: SAML 2\.0, OAuth 2\.0, OIDC, SCIM, LDAP/LDAPS, Kerberos, JWT, MFA, CBA, TLS/SSL, X\.509 \- Backend: Java 8/11/17, Spring Boot, Spring MVC, Spring Security, Spring Data JPA, Hibernate, REST APIs, Microservices \- Frontend: React, Angular, JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3 \- Data: SQL, Oracle, MySQL, MongoDB — schema design, stored procedures, indexing, query optimization \- Directories & Platforms: Microsoft Active Directory, OpenLDAP, Azure AD / Entra ID, Cross Identity IGA Suite Currently deepening OAuth 2\.0 / OIDC security patterns, OWASP secure coding and Active Directory administration\.
