Abdel-Fatah Mohammad - Senior Odoo Developer & Team Lead

// About Me

Who I Am & How I Work

Senior Odoo Developer & Team Lead with end-to-end responsibility for AlShayeb Partners' Odoo projects. I specialize in upgrading Odoo systems from 16/17 to 18 & 19, ensuring customizations remain upgrade-safe and systems stay maintainable.

I bring a strong mix of technical depth (Python / OWL / Odoo framework / Odoo.sh / GitHub / Copilot) and functional understanding of accounting & ERP. This combination allows me to build systems that are not just technically sound, but also finance-accurate and audit-ready.

Leading a team of 4 developers, I coordinate with accountants, consultants, and stakeholders to manage the full project lifecycle: discovery → design → development → deployment → support.

My focus is on building stable, maintainable, and finance-accurate systems that clients can rely on long term. Every implementation is designed with future upgrades in mind.

# My Development Philosophy

                            class OdooImplementation:

                                # Build for longevity

                                upgrade_safe = True

                                finance_accurate = True

                                maintainable = True

                                team_capable = True

How I Develop Odoo Projects

A proven methodology for building stable, upgrade-safe, and finance-ready Odoo systems

[1/6]

Discovery & Business Understanding

Start with discovery sessions with clients and their finance teams to deeply understand current processes, pain points, and requirements.

Map current processes (sales, inventory, accounting)
Identify pain points and manual workarounds
Decide: standard modules vs. custom development

[2/6]

Solution Design & Architecture

Translate business processes into Odoo-native flows with upgrade-safety and accounting correctness as core priorities.

Design upgrade-safe architecture (modular, minimal core changes)
Ensure accounting correctness (journals, taxes, reconciliation)
Plan tech stack (Odoo.sh, Git branching, OWL/Python)

[3/6]

Development & Configuration

Build custom modules using Python backend and OWL/QWeb frontend, managed through Odoo.sh and Git workflows.

Odoo.sh environment management (dev, staging, production)
Git/GitHub workflows with code reviews and PR process
GitHub Copilot integration (with human code review)

Quality Assurance & Accounting Validation

Rigorous testing of all flows with special focus on accounting accuracy, journals, ledgers, and financial reports.

End-to-end flow testing (Sales → Delivery → Invoice → Payment)
Validate accounting: journals, trial balance, P&L, balance sheet
Performance optimization and edge case handling

SPECIALTY [5/6]

Upgrades & Data Migration (16/17 → 18/19)

My core expertise: Seamless upgrades from Odoo 16/17 to 18/19, handling custom modules, data migration, and post-upgrade optimization.

Analyze existing instance (modules, customizations, data volumes)
Refactor custom modules for new API and deprecations
Migrate & reconcile data (partners, products, transactions, balances)
Post-upgrade testing & user training on new features

[6/6]

Deployment, DevOps & Support

Manage Odoo.sh pipelines for zero-downtime deployments and provide ongoing support, optimization, and future upgrade preparation.

Odoo.sh pipeline management (Dev → Staging → Production)
Zero-downtime deployments during maintenance windows
Post-go-live: bug fixes, performance tuning, enhancements

Team Leadership & Collaboration

Throughout all phases, I lead a team of 4 developers, performing code reviews, maintaining coding standards, and mentoring on Odoo framework and OWL best practices. I work closely with accountants and finance experts to ensure audit-ready systems, and with client stakeholders to gather feedback and prioritize features.
