Over ten months, contributed to the kiesraad/abacus repository by building and refining election management features focused on data integrity, security, and workflow reliability. Developed robust backend APIs and frontend components using Rust, TypeScript, and React, implementing role-based access control, advanced validation logic, and automated testing to ensure accurate data entry and reporting. Enhanced CI/CD pipelines, introduced installer packaging for Windows, and improved audit logging and session management. Addressed both technical debt and user experience by refactoring data models, optimizing reporting endpoints, and aligning terminology, resulting in a maintainable, secure, and business-focused platform for election monitoring and decision support.
