How to create access control on looker backend for different developers

I have this use case:
there are 2 developers in my project, lets call them A and B.
A is from Finance and is responsible for Revenue reporting.
B is from Product and is responsible for Product tracking.

However B cannot have visibility to data/looker backend of Person A.

I can manage data limitations but I am unable to manage backend access.

By backend access you mean so that they can only see specific model or view files in the File Browser?

Hi Dawid,
Thanks for your query.
Yes I want to restrict model and views at a user level.

How would you do it in a normal environment? Would you restrict your developers from seeing certain files from a repo? How would that even work?

Yes, would prefer to have folder level control.
And be able to assign developers to each folder.

In looker, a role is a combination of permission set and model set. https://docs.looker.com/admin-options/settings/roles. You should be able to create different roles per project using that combination!
