Alex Podobas is a security-first technology leader and co-founder serving as CTO of HeartCloud, a digital health platform for remote patient monitoring, continuous glucose monitoring, and telehealth. He brings over a decade of experience building secure, compliance-driven systems from his years leading DevOps and penetration testing at UCLA and securing divisions within UCLA Health. Alex blends hands-on engineering—spanning cloud infrastructure, automation, and full-stack medical apps—with deep incident response and e-discovery experience that has interfaced with federal law enforcement and legal teams. He has consulted for both manufacturing and pharmaceutical firms on penetration testing and automated defensive monitoring, and he continues to ship consumer and clinician-facing iOS, WatchOS, and web products. Trained in history and law with specialized legal study in IP, cyberlaw, and privacy, he pairs technical rigor with an unusual legal perspective on data protection. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic integrator who turns complex regulatory and security constraints into operational, user-facing healthcare technology.
