Worked on the App-vNext/Polly repository to enhance reliability and resilience in .NET applications by addressing concurrency and cancellation issues. Focused on improving validation stability, this developer fixed a race condition in ValidationHelper by introducing synchronization around Validator.TryValidateObject, mitigating a known .NET runtime issue and strengthening thread-safety during concurrent validations. In addition, they improved cancellation-aware retry logic by ensuring cancellation tokens were properly honored during retries and delays, reducing unnecessary work when cancellations occurred. These changes were implemented using C# and .NET, with comprehensive unit testing to validate behavior under various concurrency and cancellation scenarios, resulting in more predictable application workflows.

Feb 1, 2025February 2025 — App-vNext/Polly: Strengthened reliability around cancellation-aware retry logic. Fixed cancellation handling in the retry path to properly honor cancellation tokens during retries and delays, reducing unintended retries when a cancellation is requested. Added comprehensive unit tests validating cancellation behavior before, during, and after execution as well as during delays. Linked to commit a953ba8119074d7f63cc69643d4ef1d1de52ee3f (Fix for retry cancellation #2456). Technologies/skills demonstrated: C#, .NET, Polly, asynchronous programming, unit testing (test coverage for cancellation scenarios). Business impact: improves predictability and resilience of retry behavior, reducing wasted work and improving user experience in cancellation-driven workflows.
