  • Worked in GTF Sanctions Platform, Helped in setting up tooling for running rules to prevent fraud, taking sanctions in real/near realtime. Majorly contributed in following systems:
  • User Based Authorization Server: Developed UBAC service which implements Envoy's ext-autz filter to block apis calls using api routes and header values. This was the first layer to take sanction against user.
  • Fraud Rules System: Developed FRS which helps in running different types of rules in real/near-realtime to prevent fraud which involves longer time period using Redis and Clojure.
  • Sanctions Service: Developed Sanctions service, which helped in taking temporary and permanent sanctions, along with repeal flow. Used quartz, clojure and kafka to achieve this.
