Selected professional experience
COVID-19 Job Retention Scheme
Contributed to Scala engineering work in the HMRC domain during delivery of the COVID-19 Job Retention Scheme.
This page describes individual professional experience, not a Hypnoshroom client engagement or an official HMRC account.
Role
Contributed as part of an established engineering team working in a time-critical public-service context.
Engineering context
The work sat in a domain where changes needed careful delivery, clear collaboration and respect for existing service behaviour.
Contribution
- Worked with Scala services and the delivery practices around established applications.
- Contributed to changes through the team’s existing review, testing and release process.
- Worked within the constraints of a large public-sector service and its surrounding integrations.
What this experience brings
It reinforced the value of small, reviewable changes and evidence-led testing when software supports a consequential public service.
