Summary
John Tauber is a veteran technology executive with over two decades leading IT organizations in PBM, healthcare, insurance and financial services, and currently runs his consultancy QualyMetrics to help clients align IT with revenue and efficiency goals. He served as CIO at major PBMs and pharmacy systems, managing large-scale, high-throughput platforms (30M members, 180M claims/year) and multi‑million dollar budgets while maintaining near‑perfect uptime and sub‑second response SLAs. His background spans hands‑on datacenter operations, vendor and contract negotiations, continuity planning and project portfolio management, plus prior P&L and delivery leadership for large consulting practices. Now retired and based between Lake Geneva, WI and Florida winters, he brings a practitioner’s eye for operational resilience and pragmatic IT strategy to boardroom and advisory engagements. An underappreciated strength is his track record of scaling both people (200+ staff) and mission‑critical infrastructure across startups and Fortune‑level clients.
