PROFILE

Joe Shaw

During their three-month tenure, J. Shaw enhanced Fastly’s backend systems across the fastly/Viceroy, fastly/go-fastly, and fastly/cli repositories. Shaw strengthened security in Go by implementing stricter object key validation to prevent directory traversal, aligning Viceroy’s logic with production standards. In go-fastly, they introduced a name-based filtering feature for KV store listings, improving API precision and data consistency through careful fixture and timestamp management. Shaw also improved the CLI user experience by refining object-storage access-keys documentation and output formatting. Their work demonstrated depth in Go, API and CLI development, and security, resulting in more robust, maintainable, and user-friendly tooling.

June 2025: Implemented name-based filtering for KV stores in fastly/go-fastly by adding an optional 'Name' parameter to ListKVStoresInput. Updated fixtures and timestamps to reflect the new behavior. This enhances precision and reduces noise when listing KV stores by name. No major bugs fixed this month; focus was on feature delivery and data consistency. Technologies demonstrated include Go, API design with query parameters, fixture management, and version control with clear, traceable commits.

February 2025: Security hardening for fastly/Viceroy by tightening object key validation to prevent directory traversal and align with production security policies. Implemented stricter checks to reject keys containing '../' or ending with '/..', and similarly for './' or ending with '/.' to prevent directory traversal and enforce production standards across key handling.
