Peter Pilgrim delivered security hardening, dependency upgrades, and user experience improvements across several HMCTS repositories, including civil-service, civil-commons, and enforcement-api. He focused on backend and frontend development using Java, Spring Boot, and JavaScript, addressing OWASP and NIST CVEs, stabilizing build pipelines, and refining configuration management. In enforcement-api, Peter established a standardized Spring Boot template and integrated local CCD testing to streamline development and CI feedback. His work in civil-citizen-ui and hmpps-manage-people-on-probation-ui enhanced UI clarity and data-entry guidance. Throughout, Peter demonstrated depth in build automation, DevOps, and vulnerability management, delivering maintainable, audit-friendly solutions to complex engineering challenges.
