Pengfei Xue developed and enhanced data processing features for the NHSDigital/dtos-service-insights repository, focusing on backend reliability and data integrity. Over four months, Pengfei delivered new API endpoints, improved data models, and enriched episode and participant data with additional fields and validation logic. Using C#, SQL, and Azure Functions, Pengfei aligned database schemas with evolving requirements, introduced robust logging and metrics for observability, and ensured accurate organisation identifiers through API integration. The work emphasized maintainable code, comprehensive unit testing, and traceable commits, resulting in more reliable data pipelines and improved support for downstream analytics and governance across the service.

February 2025 (NHSDigital/dtos-service-insights): Delivered Organisation ID enrichment for episode data, improving data integrity and governance. Introduced an API endpoint to retrieve Organisation ID by code and integrated this lookup into episode creation and update workflows, ensuring episodes always carry the correct organisation identifier. This work enhances reporting accuracy and downstream system reliability, with traceability to the committed change. No major bugs reported this month. The focus was on delivering a robust, auditable data enrichment feature that lays groundwork for broader org-level governance improvements in future iterations. Technologies/skills demonstrated include API design, backend service integration, data enrichment patterns, and strong commit traceability.
