I help startups, scale-ups, and enterprises implement secure, scalable, and user-friendly authentication systems using Keycloak and other modern identity providers. With 6+ years of specialized experience in Identity and Access Management (IAM), I design and deliver production-ready Single Sign-On (SSO) solutions, passwordless authentication, and fine-grained authorization that reduce security risks while improving user experience. My core expertise includes: Keycloak implementation, optimization, clustering, custom extensions (SPI), realm design, and high-availability setups (Docker + Kubernetes) Complex SSO/Federation using OIDC, SAML 2.0, OAuth2 Integration with Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, Auth0, AWS Cognito, Google Workspace, Salesforce, Oracle IAM, and others Advanced security: MFA (WebAuthn, TOTP, YubiKey), RBAC/ABAC (OpenFGA, OPA), conditional & risk-based authentication User provisioning & lifecycle management with SCIM 2.0, LDAP/AD sync, and bulk migrations Troubleshooting and fixing common identity issues (redirect loops, token errors, SAML assertion problems, session management) I work fluently with Spring Boot, .NET, Node.js/NestJS, React/Next.js, Golang, and strong DevOps practices (AWS, Oracle Cloud, Terraform, CI/CD). Whether you need a fresh Keycloak setup, migration from Auth0/Okta/Cognito, custom authenticator development, or long-term IAM strategy — I deliver clean, well-documented solutions quickly (often within days for standard implementations). Let's discuss how I can secure and simplify authentication for your application. My Expertise: ✅ SSO / Identity Federation - SSO Login Setup (Web, Mobile, Cloud) - Custom Identity Provider Integration (SAML/OAuth-based) - Role-Based & Attribute-Based Access Control (RBAC/ABAC) ✅ Authorization & MFA - Fine-grained access via OpenFGA, OPA, RBAC/ABAC - MFA setup: OTP, TOTP, YubiKey, WebAuthn, Push - Conditional access, risk-based auth, step-up auth ✅ User Lifecycle / SCIM / Provisioning - SCIM 2.0 integrations - AD/LDAP sync - Scripted provisioning & deprovisioning - Bulk user provisioning and migration via SCIM APIs (Auth0 to OCI IAM) ✅ Troubleshooting Identity Nightmares - Fixing SAML assertion issues - OAuth callback errors - Token/session misconfigurations - Resolving redirect loops, login failures 🛠️ Identity Providers I’ve Worked With (100+): ✅ Google SSO login ✅ Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) SSO ✅ Okta SSO Integration ✅ Keycloak SSO ✅ Oracle IAM – OCI IAM, OAM, OIM ✅ Oracle Student Financial Aid (SFA) ✅ GitHub SSO ✅ Ping Federate SSO Login ✅ Auth0 Universal Login Setup ✅ OneLogin SSO Integration ✅ Shibboleth IdP/SP ✅ JumpCloud SSO Login/Provisioning ✅ ForgeRock IAM ✅ IdentityServer4/8 ✅ WSO2 Identity Server ✅ SimpleSAMLphp ✅ Custom SAML SPs ✅ AWS Cognito SSO ✅ Salesforce SSO ✅ G Suite Login ✅ Apple & Facebook OAuth ✅ ADFS (Active Directory Federation Services) 🏆 Why Work With Me? - Rapid SSO & IAM Setup (often within hours) - Deep experience debugging login/session/token issues - Clear, documented implementations - Flexible for both one-time fixes and long-term IAM strategy 🧰 Technical Expertise Languages: C#, Java, JavaScript, Python, PHP, Golang, Bash Frameworks & Libraries: Spring Boot, Spring Security, .NET, Node.js (Express), Django, React,NEXT JS, NEST JS, Angular. Security & Authentication: SAML2, OAuth2, OpenID Connect (OIDC), JWT, WS-Fed, MFA, SCIM, RBAC, CIBA. DevOps & Cloud Infrastructure: AWS, Oracle Cloud (OCI), Docker, Kubernetes (K8s/EKS), GitHub/Gitlabs Actions, CI/CD Pipelines Application & Deployment Management: Multi-stage Docker builds, Deployment automations, Gitlabs/Github/Jenkins CI/CD, enterprise rollout via Group Policy (GPO). If you're looking for an IAM expert who can secure your authentication workflows, integrate SSO solutions across platforms, and build scalable identity management systems, let's connect!
