Worked across alphagov/pay-product-page, pay-selfservice, and pay-connector repositories to deliver five features and one bug fix over four months, focusing on front end development, accessibility, and test quality. Built a unified navigation system and improved UI consistency using CSS, HTML, and Ruby on Rails, streamlining user journeys and aligning with design standards. Enhanced accessibility by refining aria-current usage and clarifying form labels, supporting better screen reader experiences and reducing user confusion. Improved maintainability through targeted test suite refactoring in Java with Mockito, introducing dedicated tests for Stripe integration. Prioritized maintainable, accessible, and user-focused solutions throughout each project phase.

For 2025-10, Alphagov/pay-product-page delivered a streamlined navigation experience and foundational UI improvements that drive user efficiency and design consistency. Key work focused on a Unified Service Navigation System with inverted colors, removal of outdated breadcrumb navigation across Get Started and Features pages, and a centralized helper to manage active states for subpages under the Features tab. These changes reduce UI clutter, improve accessibility via consistent color contrast, and simplify future maintenance by consolidating navigation state logic. Minor polish included CSS cleanup, formatter runs, and alignment tweaks to the sign-in link in the nav to match the design system.
