Developed and finalized the AuthZEN Authorization API specification for the openid/publication repository over a three-month period, focusing on secure access control and robust authorization workflows. The work included drafting and stabilizing the API’s information model, defining PDP-PEP communication for authorization requests and decisions, and delivering comprehensive documentation to support integration and onboarding. Emphasized API design, specification development, and technical writing, using JavaScript, Markdown, and XML to ensure clarity and maintainability. The approach prioritized production readiness by aligning security and transport expectations, reducing integration risk, and providing a single source of truth for cross-team collaboration and future implementation efforts.
