Rohith Namboothiri
I'm a product person who ships the code, and a founder who reads the research.
Thirteen years, three companies, half a dozen domains. I started in personal-safety tech. Then spent a decade on an educator-centric platform that reached 85,000+ learners across 35+ countries. At Ting Works I joined in April 2025 as Senior Product Manager — AI & Innovation; on 4 June 2026 I was redesignated Associate Vice President — Product, AI & Innovation. I lead Tingdom, the company's internal operating platform, and Project ATOM, the intelligence layer that runs on top of it.
I am drawn to the boring problems behind every AI demo. Authorization, provenance, hallucination in long contexts, what happens when an agent picks up the wrong genre and starts sounding confident. I file patents about them, publish on them, then ship systems that work around them.
Four practices
Design platforms and AI systems end-to-end: Tingdom for operations, ATOM for intelligence on top.
Two companies from zero. One scaled globally and wrapped its chapter; one taught me what not to ship.
Patent pending on provenance-chained RAG. Papers on authorization, ghost context, genre lock-in.
Authoring a book about AI that takes people more seriously, not less.
