About Me
Hello.
I’m Yatharth, a CS engineer who became a UX researcher at MathWorks. I work on the industrial toolboxes, the ones engineers use to pull data out of factories, submarines and amusement-park rides. The people I interview have usually been doing the job for twenty-five years, and some work in defence and can’t tell me anything at all, so the work starts with earning the right to ask a second question.

Selected Work
Case Studies
Four studies from my work at MathWorks. Each one starts with a decision that needed making, and ends with what shipped.

Five tools became one.
Engineers can now explore a factory floor and leave with working MATLAB code, without opening a code editor.
We replaced 50 lines of C language with three lines of MATLAB. Then we tested every word.
API Design · Comparative Study · MathWorks
Which API style do hardware engineers prefer — and why does it matter for a decade?
A research study that turned 57 survey responses into 4 product roadmap candidates.
Survey Research · Strategy · MathWorks
What do MQTT engineers actually struggle with, and what should we build next?
A discovery-to-workshop process that decided which form factor to build for OPC UA Server.
Strategic Planning · Workshop · MathWorks
With three viable form factors and weeks of team debate, how do we decide what to build?
A factory has 10,000 sensors. Engineers had no way to explore them without writing code.
Industrial IoT · B2B · MathWorks
When engineers have never asked for an app, how do you decide what it should actually do?

Two UI/UX projects from college, before MathWorks — kept here for context on where this all started. Full case studies live on Behance.
How I Can Help
I act as a strategic product partner, helping teams identify market opportunities and prioritize features through a PM lens. By merging technical fluency with evidence-based narratives, I streamline the research-to-roadmap process to ensure we aren’t just building things right, but building the right things for the business.
