Summary
Jason Brower is a founder-led software engineer and entrepreneur with two decades of hands-on experience in aerospace embedded systems, anti-counterfeiting, and point-of-sale software, currently serving as CEO/CTO of Oceanside Software Corporation. He built Oceanside from solo founder to a profitable licensing business after navigating PA-DSS certification and selling POS solutions to universities, franchises and restaurants, then pivoting to IP licensing to scale. His technical background spans low-level PowerPC assembly, LynxOS/Linux device drivers, ARM/PIC firmware, and full-stack integrations with sensors and spectrometers—skills honed at Rockwell Collins and Authentix where he led multi-disciplinary prototype teams. A practical problem-solver who moved deliberately into unfamiliar domains, Jason translated MATLAB algorithms into production C, created handheld diagnostic devices for fuel marker detection, and shipped secure payment systems. Based in Prosper, Texas, he combines engineering depth with sales, partnerships and operational grit, and has a history of turning edgy technical proofs-of-concept into commercial products.
