As part of OBE’s post-divestment infrastructure strategy, I focused on maintaining and optimizing our Azure environments to ensure system reliability, security, and performance across CRL’s international web platforms. My efforts supported day-to-day operations, security hardening, and collaborative knowledge sharing—contributing to a stable and scalable foundation for global web services.

I played a central role in maintaining CRL’s international Azure-hosted environments, particularly as legacy systems approached end-of-life. I developed and maintained Azure Front Door WAF/CDN profiles, supported SSL certificate renewals, and ensured compliance with modern security standards across public-facing sites.

In addition, I worked closely with the AGS team to accelerate the rollout of cloud-based quoting APIs by provisioning infrastructure and enabling secure, scalable environments. As the number of Azure initiatives grew across departments, I took the initiative to map out what various teams were building, learning from their patterns to build more cohesive infrastructure and reduce silos across the organization.

By balancing innovation with stability, I ensured our legacy systems remained performant while enabling modern development pipelines to move forward with confidence.
