Summary
Jason Tarasovic is a pragmatic engineering leader and BIM Engineer with 12 years of experience building resilient, cost-efficient platforms and developer tooling. He has led platform and SRE organizations at PayIt where he drove dramatic cost-per-transaction reductions, migrated CI/CD to cloud-native Kubernetes, and shrank recovery times from days to minutes. His background spans backend Java development, large-scale Epic healthcare implementations, and logistics leadership in the U.S. Army, giving him a rare mix of operational discipline and systems-level thinking. Jason excels at translating complex compliance and integration requirements into automated, auditable infrastructure and data pipelines. Based in Kansas City, he pairs hands-on technical delivery with team-building and process improvements that increase developer velocity.
