Pouya Pournasir is a Junior Product Manager and freelance software developer with eight years of hands-on experience in game and mixed-reality development, specializing in Unity and C#. He holds a Master of Computer Science from the University of New Brunswick where his HCI-focused thesis explored how social elements affect teleoperation of UGVs, and he implemented and tested a ROS-based teleoperation interface on ClearPath’s Jackal. Pouya combines user-centered design, prototyping, A/B testing and qualitative user research—demonstrated by an AR inspection tool for civil engineers and an HCI experiment measuring player experience—to craft immersive, usable interfaces. Comfortable across Linux, Python, C and robotics stacks, he bridges academic research and product delivery to ship pragmatic prototypes into user studies and early production. Based in Fredericton, Canada, he’s interested in projects that merge XR, UX research, and human-robot interaction to create engaging, trust-building experiences.
