According to Strong's Greek, that is exactly what Judaizer means. It only appears one time in the NT.Circumcision was not a Rabbinic decree. It was part of the Abrahamic Covenant. The problem was that some wanted/required gentiles to convert to Judaism before entering the New Covenant.
Gal 2:14 But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?
G2450
Ἰουδαΐ́ζω
Ioudaizō
ee-oo-dah-id'-zo
From G2453; to become a Judaean, that is, “judaize”: - live as the Jews.
