## Work Experience
### Software Development Engineer @ Amazon
Jan 2021 – Present | New York City Metropolitan Area
• Provided service-to-service authentication and authorization using internal TLS Certificate and AWS IAM for AuthN, OAuth 2.0 standard, OpenID Connect, allowing clients to securely request resources from services across the internal and public AWS fabrics.
• Led development for the creation of CloudAuth Omnis, a language-agnostic solution in GoLang which enables consumers to make OAuth and OIDC calls, with TLS termination with minimal to no code changes. The creation of this client unblocked 1,866 different service operations within Amazon Retail Website to OAuth.
• Orchestrated traffic switching 120+ services which Retail Website platform calls. This effort involved assistance in debugging customer infrastructure, troubleshooting, managing blockers and managing migration campaign goals. Resulted in securing Amazon’s Retail Website outbound calls with zero downtime and seamless crossover.
• Implemented Transitive Auth, a fine-grained access control distributing context across service graphs. This allowed services to inherit Line-of-Business (LOB) context, improving audience scoping and consent management for multi-service workflows.
• Developed “Delegated Auth”, a proof of concept (PoC) that eliminates blanket permissions in multi-tenant services (MTS) by introducing context-aware authorization. This enables systems to identify who is calling and in what context, allowing secure handling of sensitive data with fine-grained access controls.
