PROFILE

Matteo Mazza

Worked on the ktorio/ktor and ktorio/ktor-documentation repositories to improve HTTP client reliability and caching behavior. Addressed a bug in plugin installation order, ensuring HttpRequestRetry and HttpTimeout interact correctly by updating both documentation and core Kotlin code. Enhanced user guidance with clear installation instructions and aligned documentation with actual code behavior. Later, resolved a cache miss issue in HttpCache by standardizing Vary header separator handling for content negotiation, using RFC-compliant logic and comprehensive tests. Demonstrated strong backend development, API design, and testing skills, with a focus on reducing backend load and improving negotiated response performance in Kotlin environments.

June 2026: Delivered a critical HttpCache reliability fix for content negotiation in ktor. Resolved cache misses caused by a Vary header separator mismatch when multiple Accept values are negotiated. Aligned header joining logic across cache paths, added comprehensive tests, and documented the fix. The change improves cache hit rate, reduces backend load, and speeds up negotiated responses. Demonstrated strong testing, RFC-compliant header handling, and collaborative iteration with contributors.
