Jasiński graduated from the Institute for Transport Engineering in Saint Petersburg in 1877 and then worked as an engineer on the Warsaw – Saint Petersburg rail link until 1890. First he was stationed in Pskov , then in Vilnius and from 1888 in Saint Petersburg, where in 1890 he took over the technical office of the Saint Petersburg-Warsaw railway. He was significantly involved in the construction of bridges, stations and the route of the railway.

In 1894 he received his doctorate in Saint Petersburg and from 1895 he taught at the Institute for Transport Engineering (from 1896 as a professor). Stepan Tymoshenko praised his lectures as original and masterful. In 1895 he was involved in a dispute with Friedrich Engesser about inelastic buckling . He wanted to return to Warsaw, but before that he died of tuberculosis.
