Summary
Jason Crider is a Staff Engineer based in Columbus, Ohio with 14 years of hands-on experience building full-stack web applications, APIs, and large single-page apps. He has progressed from co-owning a web studio to leading DevOps and engineering efforts at Retrium, blending infrastructure-as-code, observability, and security initiatives with feature delivery. Jason has deep experience integrating third-party services (OAuth-heavy ecosystems), architecting SPAs in React/Flux/Redux, and maintaining production systems at scale. He pairs practical ops and sysadmin skills from earlier roles with modern development practices, making him equally comfortable shipping front-end features and hardening deployment pipelines. Known jokingly on GitHub as a "Magical Web Application Wizard," he brings a pragmatic, tool-driven approach to speed and reliability improvements.
