PROFILE
Michael Willis
Mick Willis developed and enhanced backend features for the ministryofjustice/prison-api repository over a three-month period, focusing on robust API and database solutions. He delivered a Splash Screen Management API enabling dynamic CRUD operations and configuration without code changes, using Kotlin, Spring Boot, and JPA. Mick also improved questionnaire workflows by implementing new endpoints for incident type configuration, refactoring models, and introducing schema integrity measures such as foreign keys and indexes. His work included dynamic resequencing of questionnaires and expanded test coverage, resulting in more reliable, maintainable APIs and scalable data models that support evolving business requirements without major regressions.
