Summary
Asad Iqbal is a software engineer with nine years of experience who blends robotics, mechatronics, and software to accelerate engineering delivery at MathWorks. He holds an MS in Robotics & Autonomous Systems and a BS in Mechatronics with top academic honors, and his background spans industrial robot optimization, multi-robot warehouse research, embedded systems, and vehicle dynamics. At MathWorks he progressed from intern to software engineer, bringing hands-on experience building ROS packages, SLAM and trajectory control algorithms, and performance-improving hierarchical decomposition techniques. Comfortable across hardware and software stacks, he has repeatedly reduced computation or operating costs in applied projects—most notably a 30% compute improvement in multi-robot path planning and cost reductions for KUKA robot operation. Based in Natick, MA, he pairs deep technical rigor with practical systems engineering to turn research ideas into production-ready solutions.
