Over six months, contributed to the apache/zeppelin repository by building and stabilizing both frontend and backend features, with a focus on maintainability and reliability. Delivered enhancements such as automatic WebSocket reconnection in the Angular UI, unified keyboard handling across Angular and Monaco editors, and modular Node/NPM version management. Addressed critical bugs affecting Windows compatibility and CI/CD reliability, while improving integration testing with Java and Selenium. Applied configuration management and dependency pinning to streamline onboarding and ensure reproducible environments. The work emphasized robust exception handling, type safety in TypeScript, and smoother development workflows, resulting in a more resilient and maintainable codebase.
March 2026: Stability and reliability improvements for the Zeppelin interpreter test workflow in apache/zeppelin. The primary focus was reducing CI flakiness in the interpreter-test-non-core job by updating Testcontainers to address Docker Engine API compatibility.
