Worked on the xm-online/xm-uaa repository to enhance both reliability and security of backend authentication components. Addressed configuration retrieval by introducing explicit exception handling and improved logging, ensuring that failures in loading configuration from the config-app are surfaced promptly and are easier to diagnose. Later, delivered a security-focused update to the Account Update API, removing automatic authority changes and implementing strictUserManagement gating to prevent unauthorized role modifications. These changes were implemented using Java and the Spring Framework, with a focus on robust API development and unit testing. The work demonstrates careful attention to error handling, auditability, and secure user management practices.
October 2025: Delivered a security hardening for the xm-uaa Account Update API by removing automatic updates to user authorities and introducing strictUserManagement gating to prevent updates when enabled.
