Alex has extensive SaaS product leadership and operational experience scaling SaaS businesses from startups in emerging markets to global “go-to” choices in mature industries. For nearly two decades, Alex has served as a product leader, creating value propositions, designing product and service offerings, and leading internal operations that align with market opportunities to expand and improve market position in software, big data, analytics, consulting, and emerging technology industries.

As VP of Product, Alex will lead PrefTech’s engineering and platform design team. “PrefTech brings a much-needed solution to a manifest problem that affects hospitals everywhere. The opportunity for hospitals to discard outdated processes and use AI to manage surgical preference cards and identify opportunities to improve efficiency and cut costs is tremendous. I’m excited to see how hospitals adopting PrefTech OR find that supply chain problems, concerns around budgets and patient safety, and physician burn-out evaporate with the aid of PrefTech’s software solution.”

PrefTech’s CEO, Matt Boehm, sees Alex’s addition as an important step forward for the company: “Alex is a multi-dimensional tech professional who has an obvious gift for bringing world-class software products to market. I could not be more thrilled to have him join our team.”

The AI-driven software solution ultimately leads to efficiency in the operating room, satisfied physicians, and improved patient outcomes.
