Samveg Thaker - PM @ Alpaca

Samveg Thaker

PM @ Alpaca

In my current role at Alpaca, I have successfully developed two funding flows in the last six months, consistently securing over $50 million in funding each month. This achievement not only highlights my ability to conceptualize and implement impactful financial solutions but also underscores my commitment to driving measurable results. Additionally, my role involves consulting with leading Fintech firms, such as GoTrade, Syfe, and IND Money, contributing to the trading of over $3 billion and managing 2.3+ million active accounts. This experience has honed my ability to navigate the complexities of the financial industry and collaborate effectively with diverse stakeholders.

Prior to my time at Alpaca, I spent two years at Microsoft as a Software Development Engineer. Working with the Marketplace team, I managed Extensions for VS Code and Visual Studio IDE. Notably, I led the Monolith to Microservice migration, played a pivotal role in preventing a service outage, and successfully defended against a spam attack. These experiences have equipped me with a robust technical foundation and a strategic mindset, essential qualities for effective product management.

My entrepreneurial journey further sets me apart. In my second year of college, I founded a service-based startup that achieved a revenue milestone of a million INR. Later, as we transitioned to a product-based firm, Avasar, I led a cross-functional team comprising engineers, a designer, a content writer, sales executives, and interns. This experience allowed me to cultivate strong leadership skills and a deep understanding of the product lifecycle.

One of my proudest accomplishments during this time was engaging with individuals affected by depression to enhance Avasar's usability. This customer-centric approach reflects my dedication to creating products that genuinely address user needs.

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."
