Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJason Urban is a principal software engineer in Seattle with 29+ years building resilient mail, networking, and cloud infrastructure at Microsoft and earlier roles at Intel. He currently architects Azure Extended Zones and AI zones for next-generation generative AI workloads after a long tenure shaping mail flow, transport protocols, and authenticated SMTP/OAuth2 for Exchange, Office365 and Outlook.com. His career blends deep protocol-level expertise (SMTP, POP3/IMAP, MAPI) with large-scale service reliability work—leading transport test teams that helped deliver highly available Office365 mail pipelines. Jason is comfortable across product, test, and core networking domains, shipping both low-level protocol implementations and cloud resource provider features. An understated strength is his continuity: he has evolved one codebase and set of services through decades of platform shifts, enabling secure, modern authentication while deprecating legacy flows. He holds a BS in Computer Engineering from the University of Washington and brings practical institutional memory to complex cloud and messaging challenges.
