PROFILE

Philipglover

Paul Glover developed and maintained core API services for the companieshouse/psc-data-api and companieshouse/api-sdk-node repositories, focusing on secure, reliable access to PSC data. He delivered new endpoints and data models, implemented feature-flagged integrations, and migrated data flows to reduce external dependencies. Using Java, TypeScript, and Spring Boot, Paul enhanced data transformation pipelines, improved test coverage, and strengthened access controls with interceptor-based security. He addressed operational risks by refactoring code, upgrading dependencies, and automating build processes. His work established robust backend foundations, streamlined data access, and improved maintainability, enabling faster feature delivery and safer, more consistent data consumption for downstream teams.

Work History

September 2025

5 Commits • 2 Features

Sep 1, 2025

In Sep 2025, delivered a core data-model transition for individual full records to the private SDK, enabling delta data directly from the API database and removing the need to call the Oracle Query API. Updated transformer mappings to support the new structure and ensure seamless downstream consumption. Addressed stability gaps by fixing potential NullPointerExceptions in identity verification details handling, using the existing mapIdentityVerificationDetails flow. Completed internal cleanup and dependency upgrades, removing unused feature flags and upgrading the private SDK to the latest version to improve stability and maintainability. These changes reduce operational risk, streamline data access, and position the PSC data API for faster future iterations.

Jan 1, 2025

January 2025 monthly summary for companieshouse/api-sdk-node: Focused on stabilizing PSC Verification API integration and repository cleanliness to enable faster, more reliable client development and deployments. Delivered architectural groundwork for PSC Verification via a new ApiClient with essential configurations and enums, enabling straightforward integration of PSC verification services into the SDK. Consolidated API response handling by standardizing ApiResponse wrapping for checkPlannedMaintenance, aligning with existing patterns and improving observability. Expanded test coverage around the changes to ensure reliability and reduce regression risk. Performed repository maintenance by removing the dist folder to streamline version control and reduce noise. Improved overall code quality by addressing Sonar issues and removing unnecessary assignments during the ApiResponse refactor.

Nov 1, 2024

November 2024 monthly summary for companieshouse/psc-data-api: Delivered a public PSC Full Record API with a new endpoint and IndividualFullRecord data model, enabling retrieval of complete PSC records (including address and kind) with internal-to-external data transformations. Strengthened security around internal PSC data with interceptor-based access control and private endpoint configuration. Cleaned up endpoint paths by removing /private prefixes and added a service address, plus extended test coverage. Business impact includes broader external data access for partners, improved data completeness and consistency, and reduced exposure risk for sensitive information. Key technologies demonstrated include API design, data modeling, Terraform ECS configuration, security interceptors, and testing.
