How to Do Authorization - A Decision Framework: Part 1
You can find numerous libraries dedicated to authorization, depending on the language you use.

Want to make restricted access with Cognito
You must do something like ACL, Cognito layer isn't the way to achive what do you want to do. Remember, Cognito isn't nothing more than an 3rd party authorization provider with user pools, restricted access to your own resources must be handled in your logic app layer instead Cognito. However I suggest you to read about ACLs (can you check out this ie https://github.com/stalniy/casl) and differences between ACLs and authentication providers.

YAGNI exceptions
PS If you do mobile / web work (or something else with "detached" UI), I find that declarative access control rules are far superior to imperative ones, because they can be serialized and shipped over the wire. For example, backend running cancancan can be easily send the same rules to casl on the frontend, while if you used something like pundit to secure your backend, you either end up re-implementing it in the frontend, or sending ton of "canEdit" flags with every record.

Help needed - is there a product that provides the auth functionality we need?
Looks like you’re looking for a role-based access control (RBAC) module on your backend. What you would do is attach roles to your users/tokens which would allow or deny any specific action on a resource. Take a look at https://casbin.org/ that might be useful.
