PROFILE

Scott Bender

Worked on the bkeepers/signalk-server repository, delivering targeted improvements to backend data handling, admin UI, and plugin search performance. Addressed data integrity by refining how callsignVhf fields are loaded and normalized, and enhanced operational visibility through new admin UI views for tracking app installations and removals. Implemented a keyword-based caching layer for plugin searches, reducing redundant API calls and improving App Store responsiveness. Fixed a deltaPriority bug by guarding against missing values and adding regression tests to ensure stability. The work combined JavaScript, TypeScript, Node.js, and React, demonstrating a focus on robust backend development, API integration, and comprehensive testing.
