Meet the founders.

FOUNDER & CEO

Todd Butka

Murj Founder and CEO, Todd Butka, supported clinics as a Medtronic cardiac device representative. He saw clinicians struggling to check devices with old and inadequate tools that took too much time and effort. Todd observed them flipping between multiple websites, paper charts, and EHR records without really knowing if they had everything they needed.

Having worked in product management at Apple, Todd knew that well-designed technology had the potential to transform the industry. Murj was created with the belief that software can solve device clinic challenges without requiring additional staff.
