Cut a square of spare bartape and pack out the section of bar behind the shifter to turn the dip into a smooth transition.. Then re wrap ya bars

As SK suggested, that does the trick, I think I nailed the transition using the same bars as were previously presenting the problem:

Now, does anyone have a suggestion for wrapping the tape? Using cheat tape and having it go under the hoods seems to be a no no, which is standard fare with SRAM.

@RyanH figure 8 around the shifter? Looks pretty clean and always seems to hide any clamping parts from my experience.
