PROFILE

Michael New

Worked on backend enhancements for the adobe/spacecat-api-service repository, focusing on improving observability and traceability for preflight API requests. Introduced end-to-end request ID tracing by implementing the x-preflight-request-id header, along with middleware for validation and propagation across service boundaries. Enhanced structured logging to include key identifiers such as jobId, siteId, orgId, and traceId, supporting faster debugging and incident response. All changes were delivered in JavaScript using Node.js, with careful alignment to design documentation and API stability. The work emphasized clean commit practices, thorough documentation, and improved cross-service debugging without altering the existing API surface or introducing regressions.
