Worked on CDCgov/prime-reportstream to deliver features focused on secure, interoperable backend systems. Built HL7 acknowledgement support for opt-in senders, enabling seamless integration with HL7-based partners. Developed an authorization system using Okta for group-based access control, leveraging custom JWTs and centralized identity management. Implemented these solutions with Kotlin, Java, and Python, utilizing Spring Boot, message queuing, and OAuth 2.0. Enhanced documentation and test coverage to support maintainability and onboarding, including a Python script for automated token retrieval. The work established robust security governance, improved interoperability, and provided a scalable foundation for future access control and system extensibility.
March 2025: Implemented Okta-based Authorization and Access Control System for CDCgov/prime-reportstream, establishing centralized identity management and RBAC for user and application access. Also refactored setup documentation to align with the new auth design and added a Python script to obtain client access tokens, enhancing security and automation of token-based access. No major bugs reported this month; the work provides a solid foundation for improved security governance and streamlined onboarding across the repository.
