PROFILE
Kathryn Mazaitis
Kathryn Mazaitis developed and maintained the pudl-archiver repository, building a robust data archiving pipeline focused on reliability, automation, and data integrity. Over four months, Kathryn engineered features such as per-year data partitioning, checksum-verified uploads with automatic retries, and asynchronous data ingestion, leveraging Python, Playwright, and GitHub Actions. Her work included refactoring core architectures for modularity, enhancing metadata and DOI integration for Zenodo citations, and migrating test suites to Playwright for improved coverage. By addressing edge cases in file handling and strengthening CI/CD workflows, Kathryn delivered a maintainable, scalable solution that improved data accessibility, validation, and developer onboarding.

Jun 1, 2025June 2025 (2025-06) focused on reliability, test automation, and developer enablement for pudl-archiver. Key outcomes include: - Checksum verification with automatic retry for uploads to prevent mismatches and reduce 502-related failures, improving data integrity and user experience. - Migration and hardening of the test suite to Playwright across FERC714 and FERC2, with Pixi integration and environment/dependency cleanup to improve reliability and test coverage. - Enhanced diagnostics and logging for zipfile downloads and PDF/HTML edge cases, enabling faster debugging and greater resilience in production workflows. - CI/test stability improvements: restructuring tests, improved timeout handling for page.goto, and fixes for filename collisions and blocked downloads in epapcap. - Documentation improvements: Pixi README updates to guide integration tests, facilitating onboarding and consistent testing.
