Group Lookup in Rich Filters

Question

Forgive if this is a basic question, but I'm looking for a way to create rich filters that can reference a look-up type of query.  For instance, I have 4 teams with 5-6 individuals on each team that will be assignees.  Rather than creating a filter that I have to enter in each team member's name to get all work assigned to the team, I'd like for the system to recognize which team the assignee is on and create my query with the team name instead.

Is this a possibility and if so, how would the filter be created?

I'm only familiar with poor filters, and those all resolve user pickers (i.e. assignee) with users only.

I haven't come across a jql function that would do what you describe, but it should be possible in theory, it would just have to be a custom JQL function, similar to something like this: https://docs.adaptavist.com/sr4js/latest/features/jql-functions

Though your question is labeled for Confluence, it reads to me that you had Jira in mind.
