Zakaria Markhi contributed to the hmcts/finrem-case-orchestration-service and finrem-ccd-definitions repositories, focusing on backend enhancements and data governance over a three-month period. He developed features to improve solicitor data handling, access control, and case event routing, using Java, Spring Boot, and JSON for configuration. Zakaria refactored code for maintainability, modernized testing with JUnit 5 and Mockito, and enforced stricter schema definitions to ensure data integrity. His work addressed technical debt, standardized field permissions, and improved notification reliability, resulting in a more robust and auditable system. The depth of his contributions strengthened both operational efficiency and code quality.

October 2025: Delivered a cohesive solicitor-data handling feature and reinforced data integrity across case orchestration and CCD definitions.

The work improves accuracy of solicitor roles, representation status updates for consented/contested cases, and reduces misconfigurations in callbacks, with broader test coverage and code-quality improvements.
