Jonathan Della Penta contributed to the SOEN490-CAPSTONE2026/FoodFlow repository by engineering robust CI/CD pipelines, real-time messaging, and observability features over four months. He implemented automated build and test workflows using GitHub Actions and Docker, integrated Prometheus and Grafana for end-to-end monitoring, and enhanced security with JWT-authenticated WebSockets. Jonathan also developed backend features in Java and Spring Boot, such as user profile retrieval and language preference management, while improving repository hygiene and test reliability. His work enabled faster, safer deployments, actionable operational insights, and a more consistent user experience, demonstrating depth in backend development, DevOps, and metrics-driven monitoring.
