Christian-gen00

Christian Genovese engineered robust backend and API solutions across the pagopa/idpay-payment, idpay-merchant, and cstar-securehub-infra repositories, focusing on secure data access, scalable API design, and automated deployment. He applied Java and Spring Boot to implement features such as header-based merchant authorization, transaction query optimization, and PDF generation with barcode support. Leveraging Terraform and YAML for infrastructure as code, Christian modernized CI/CD pipelines and integrated static analysis with GitHub Actions and SonarCloud. His work emphasized maintainable code, clear API contracts using OpenAPI Specification, and efficient data processing, resulting in resilient, high-quality services that address both business and technical requirements.

November 2025: Delivered cross-repo features with strong business value across pagopa/idpay-payment and pagopa/idpay-merchant, focusing on search usability, document clarity, and security hardening for POS transactions. Key outcomes include a regex-based "+like" filter for GTIN in transaction queries, barcode support in PDFs for discount sections, and robust POS authorization validation with token checks and POS ID verification. Also updated service exception configuration to properly handle forbidden access scenarios. These changes improve transaction retrieval accuracy, streamline processing of discounted documents, and reduce risk of unauthorized data access, contributing to better customer experience and regulatory compliance.
