Worked on the Hivemapper/odc-api repository over three months, delivering five backend features focused on secure API development and robust data workflows. Built a secure plugin secrets retrieval API, enhancing encrypted secret management and aligning internal endpoints with authenticated routes. Enhanced the bounding box endpoint for landmark images, adding camera metadata and improving data fidelity, while introducing a new geolocation-based API route for nearby bursts. Developed a proxy route for plugin video events with strict validation and improved observability. Leveraged TypeScript, Node.js, and Express.js throughout, emphasizing strong error handling, comprehensive testing, and reliable service orchestration to support production-grade backend systems.
April 2026: Implemented a focused feature for plugin video events in odc-api, enhancing plugin data delivery to the backend and strengthening observability, security, and reliability. The work supports the plugin ecosystem and video data workflows with robust routing and validation.

March 2026 monthly summary for Hivemapper/odc-api: Delivered three backend enhancements that improve data quality, reliability, and geospatial capabilities, driving better analytics and user experience. Key features/fixes include 1) BoundingBox Endpoint Enhancement for Landmark Images now returns camera position, confidence, and timestamp, with updated field names, tests, and documentation (CAP-85); 2) New API Route: Fetch Nearby Bursts by Geolocation added to enable location-based queries; 3) Video Plugin Initialization Reliability implemented an automatic restart of map-ai when a video plugin is first enabled to bootstrap the video processing pipeline. In addition, we expanded test coverage and documentation around the landmark endpoint to ensure robustness for multi-observation scenarios and null camera fields. Overall impact: higher fidelity landmark data, faster feature availability, and a more robust startup process. Technologies/skills: REST API design, Node.js/TypeScript backend, unit/integration testing, documentation, and service orchestration.

February 2026: Implemented Secure Plugin Secrets Retrieval API for Hivemapper/odc-api, enabling retrieval of encrypted plugin secrets via a new /secrets/:pluginName route proxied from upstream. Improved error handling for non-2xx responses and updated the internal secrets endpoint to align with the authenticated route at /plugins/:name/secrets. These changes strengthen plugin security, simplify secret management, and reduce risk for production configurations.
