Secure Execution Gateway Developer

Plugin Gateway Security Developer – Secure Execution Routing System

---

## Description:

We are hiring a backend developer to build a **secure gateway system** that controls access to executable tools inside a modular chat platform. The system must ensure that plugins (submitted by external contributors) can only be run through authorized routes and cannot be triggered directly or abused.

The build must follow clear access rules, prevent misuse, and support internal review upon completion.
**Final milestone will only be released after successful security review of the code.**

---

## What You’ll Build:

### 1. Secure Plugin Execution Gateway

* All tool executions must pass through a verified backend route
* Plugin calls must include:

* Execution token or signature validation
* Internal plugin ID mapping (obfuscated from frontend)
* Logged metadata (tool used, time, user ID)

### 2. Access Validation System

* Prevent any direct or unauthorized plugin execution
* Block tampered or spoofed requests
* Ensure only approved plugins can be triggered by users with valid permissions or credit balance (integration hooks only – not full credit logic)

### 3. Logging & Monitoring

* Track all plugin calls with:

* Timestamp
* Originating user/session ID
* Plugin identifier
* Admin access to view logs and flag suspicious patterns

---

## Security Notes:

* No open or public plugin endpoints
* All plugin triggers must route through internal logic only
* Developer must not expose internal plugin names, credit values, or trigger logic in frontend code

---

## Requirements:

* Experience with secure backend architectures and API request validation
* Strong knowledge of Node.js, Laravel, or equivalent frameworks
* Familiarity with token-based validation or signed request systems
* Must build modular, reviewable, and auditable logic

---

## Budget:

**\$300–\$500 USD fixed**
(Approximately **\$450–\$750 AUD**)
Final milestone will only be released **after internal code audit is passed**

---

## Timeline:

* Start: ASAP
* Delivery: Within 5–7 days
