  • Troubleshoot complex auth failures, perform root cause analysis, and implement fixes; provide L2/L3 handover with documentation.
  • Define security standards (token encryption, key rotation, session management), run threat/risk assessments and ensure compliance (SOC2, ISO27001, GDPR where applicable).
  • Mentor junior engineers, run knowledge sessions, and perform code/config reviews.
