Currently focussed on building its wealth management and online brokerage offerings used by customers across Asia, the Singapore-headquartered Syfe already has an 80-member team working out of its tech hub in India.
Backed by more than 15 years of experience in technical recruiting, Seth moves from Cabernet Consulting, where he was associate vice president. Seth has also worked with Uber, Amazon, Walmart Labs, Flipkart, Ola, Myntra, Swiggy and Yahoo, among others in his career.
In his new role, he will help Syfe further grow its tech team and its capabilities to support the business as it expands into new markets.

Seth is eager to be part of “Syfe’s truly diverse team of over 170 employees from 17 different nationalities working across our offices in India, Singapore and Hong Kong”. He is looking forward to “expanding our tech team at a faster pace to strengthen our capability as a key centre of excellence in building cutting-edge products.”
Snehal Samant, VP, product, Syfe, is confident that Seth’s “rich experience in technical recruiting will help in building a strong talent pipeline, as we gear up to expand our footprint in more geographies”.
