Sharjeel Baloch enhanced the DEFRA/epr-pom-func-producer-validation repository by delivering robust validation logic for zero-returns scenarios in packaging material weight reporting. He implemented support for zero returns on QuantityKg, introducing a new warning code and updating validators to ensure accurate error handling. Using C# and Java, Sharjeel expanded unit test coverage with JUnit, addressing both validation correctness and code quality flagged by SonarQube. His work improved data integrity and compliance with zero-returns policies, reducing downstream validation failures. Through focused backend development and validator improvements, Sharjeel contributed to faster, more reliable producer validation cycles and increased maintainability of the codebase.
