PicnicHealth, a health technology company dedicated to simplifying clinical research and care, today announced the appointment of Vera Hart as chief financial officer. Hart will oversee the company’s financial operations, including financial planning, accounting, investor relations, and strategic decision-making, as PicnicHealth continues to scale its platform and expand partnerships with life science companies.
“Vera has a proven track record of scaling high-performance companies and positioning them for long-term success,” says Noga Leviner, chief executive officer at PicnicHealth. “Her strategic financial acumen will be invaluable as we continue to grow and deliver value to our research partners.”
Last year, PicnicHealth launched its life sciences research product, designed to simplify observational research and help customers meet study endpoints faster. Through its proprietary technology platform, the company collects medical records from anywhere patients receive care and enables patients to complete research activities through an intuitive app. Today, 12 of the top 20 biopharmaceutical companies rely on PicnicHealth to conduct more efficient research.
Hart brings over 15 years of experience in finance, strategy, and operations at high-growth startups and global financial institutions. Most recently, she served as senior vice president of finance and operations at Armada, where she led cross-functional teams in finance, HR, and legal while securing significant financing. Previously, she was vice president of strategic finance at Medable, where she drove strategic planning, investor relations, and capital raising initiatives. Hart also managed financial planning for U.S. and European operations at Grail, supporting the company’s growth from its early stages to IPO filing and subsequent acquisition.
In addition to her roles at top Bay Area startups, Hart has extensive financial expertise from her tenure in investment banking at J.P. Morgan and global treasury operations at Commerzbank. She holds an MBA from Yale School of Management and a BBA in finance and investments from Baruch College.
