Worked on cloud infrastructure and integration projects within the ministryofjustice/cloud-platform-environments and related repositories, delivering features for secure environment provisioning, auditability, and cross-system event processing. Used Terraform, Kubernetes, and AWS to automate environment setup, manage IAM roles, and configure resources such as RDS databases and SQS queues. Enhanced API reliability and data integrity by refactoring Kotlin and Spring Boot services, improving serialization, and adding validation for time zones and reporting fields. Collaborated across repositories to standardize monitoring, certificate management, and CI/CD pipelines, enabling safer deployments and faster onboarding for HMPS Community Payback and related services. Focused on maintainability and governance.
April 2026: Delivered UPW Allocation Scheduling: Start Date and Frequency Controls feature in ministryofjustice/hmpps-probation-integration-e2e-tests. The feature adds startDate and frequency parameters to the UPW allocation step, enabling precise scheduling and improved user control. Work tracked under CPB-810, including changes to set frequency and allocation day, and corrections to the startDate logic, plus formatting updates. No major bugs fixed this month; primary focus was feature delivery, code quality, and maintainability.
