Three fields that every growing company eventually discovers are one field

Twenty years of work across software, finance and law — three fields that every growing company eventually discovers are one field. He holds a master's degree in software engineering and a master's degree in strategic management: one for how systems are built, one for why businesses need them. Odoone's founding premise — that process, ERP and compliance should be solved as a single problem — is that career, condensed into a company.

The unusual part: he still builds. The Odoone apps line — from filing-ready UAE VAT and corporate tax reports to WPS payroll, Peppol e-invoicing and cheque printing calibrated to real UAE bank leaves — is developed under his hand, with every module documented in English, Arabic and Persian. When Odoone advises on a system, the advice comes from someone who has read — and written — the source code.

He works in Dubai, publishes as @HDaryanavard on X and hdaryanavard on GitHub, and answers to the description on his own profile: Odoo Project Leader.
