STORY
GET TO KNOW / A LITTLE ABOUT ME
Engineer by background.
Product builder by choice.
I’m Rasmi, an AI product manager and the founder of ReffConnect. I work across discovery, product strategy, engineering and delivery to turn a customer problem into something useful.
My path has taken me from a B.Sc. in Botany at Berhampur University to an MCA at KIIT, then into frontend engineering, learner operations and enterprise AI. Each chapter taught me to look at a problem from a different angle.
At Shadowfax, I worked on delivery journeys and customer tracking. At Scaler, I explored how AI could remove friction from learner support. At Auxy AI, I worked with enterprise clients to make AI conversations more reliable and reduce unnecessary human handoffs.
With ReffConnect, I’m tackling a problem I understand personally: getting access to the right people and opportunities. The platform brings structured referrals, mentorship, resume reviews and interview practice into one place.
I like getting close to the problem, making the trade-offs clear, and staying involved until the product reaches its users.
