PROFILE

Hege Haavaldsen

Hege Haavaldsen developed and enhanced backend systems for the navikt/helse-spleis repository, focusing on robust income data processing, employer information workflows, and eligibility logic. She implemented features such as periodized income handling, self-employed income format support, and replay-aware employer data requests, using Kotlin, Java, and GraphQL. Her work included refactoring data models, improving event-driven message handling, and strengthening observability with OpenTelemetry. By addressing edge cases, refining validation logic, and upgrading dependencies, Hege improved data integrity and system reliability. Her engineering approach emphasized maintainability and accuracy, enabling faster, more reliable case processing and reducing manual intervention in complex workflows.

May 1, 2025

May 2025 (navikt/helse-spleis) delivered Self-Employed Income Data Format Support to strengthen application processing for self-employed applicants. The work focused on updating the data model and message handling to parse and utilize the updated income structure from applications, including revised JSON path references and data mappings. This enables accurate ingestion and downstream processing of the new income format, improving eligibility decisions and data quality.

Apr 1, 2025

April 2025 monthly summary focusing on key accomplishments, major bugs fixed, and overall impact across two repositories (navikt/helse-spleis and navikt/helse-sparkelapper). Key feature delivered: Robust Employer Information Request and Processing Across Periods in helse-spleis. This feature consolidates changes to improve correctness and completeness of employer information requests, including handling of period transitions with gaps, self-reported days, replays of income messages, and related internal refactors to streamline data structures. In parallel, a targeted bug fix in helse-sparkelapper removed an unnecessary precondition related to tilstand as part of the logic migration to spleis. Key achievements: - Delivered robust Employer Information Request and Processing Across Periods in helse-spleis, handling period transitions (gaps), self-reported days, and income-message replays with refactored data structures. - Implemented replay-aware data gathering and request logic (opplysningerViTrenger) for AUU scenarios and replays, reducing missing or duplicate employer data requests. - Simplified request flow and state handling with new logic for sending requests to HAG, and refined flags (erPotensiellForespørsel) and status checks to avoid unnecessary requests. - Fixed critical bug in helse-spleis: corrected erroneous employer-period requests and improved handling during AUU and replay of income messages. - Fixed bug in helse-sparkelapper: removed an unnecessary precondition (tilstand) in TrengerArbeidsgiveropplysningerBegrensetRiver.kt, aligning with the spleis-driven logic. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Improved data correctness and reliability in employer information gathering, leading to fewer manual interventions and faster case resolution. - Enhanced processing throughput for sickness benefits by reducing redundant requests and ensuring complete data is available when needed. - Strengthened maintainability through refactoring, clearer data structures, and replay-aware workflows. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Stateful workflow refactoring and data-model simplification in Kotlin-based services. - Replay handling for income messages and period transitions. - Clear separation of concerns between data gathering (TrengerArbeidsgiveropplysninger) and request dispatch (AUU), with safer flag usage and status-driven logic.

Jan 1, 2025

January 2025 delivered robust data handling, bug fixes, and dependency improvements across three repositories. Key features included OpphørAvNaturalytelser refactor with structured data and mandatory field validation, logging for discrepancy scenarios, and the removal of the out-of-order warning to streamline operator workflows. Implemented preconditions to ignore requests from ARBEIDSLEDIG, SELVSTENDIG, and FRILANS in Sparkelapper, with tests to prevent erroneous processing. Addressed an edge-case in VedtaksperiodeGodkjent for a specific behandlingId and completed dependency upgrades (rapids, rivers, tbd-libs) for stability and compatibility. Overall, these changes improve data integrity, reduce manual checks, and strengthen compliance with reporting requirements.
