Anas Al-Najjar · Damascus, Syria
I design and build practical systems that turn field data into reliable workflows, reports and operational decisions.
My work connects field operations, data quality and reporting with the software, automation and infrastructure required to make the whole process work.
01Field to decision
The strongest system starts with the operation: who collects the data, how quality is checked, what must remain traceable and which decision the final output must support.
Design forms and collection routines around the people, locations, constraints and follow-up actions that exist in practice.
Use validation rules, duplicate checks, review queues and feedback loops so errors are found early and returned with clear action.
Connect cases, people, activities, documents and permissions in a structure that supports daily work and preserves history.
Automate synchronization, comparisons, attachments, PDFs and notifications while keeping checkpoints, logs and failure reporting.
Shape case documents, operational summaries and dashboards around recurring review questions—not around decorative charts.
Surface workload, gaps, exceptions and follow-up priorities so teams can act with a clearer view of what is happening.
KoBo collection, validation and structured workflows.
Python, SQL, transformation and document automation.
Excel, Power BI and operational reporting.
Databases, deployment, Docker and web systems.
02Selected systems
Each system is presented by its actual role and status. Historical scale is labeled as historical; demonstration evidence uses synthetic records where privacy requires it.
A centralized system for child and household records, assessments, services, documents, activities and management reporting in a connectivity-constrained environment.
Connected workflows for incremental synchronization, attachment organization, change tracking, bulk validation and recurring role-based reporting.
Combined staff training, individualized case documentation, management summaries and historical monitoring to strengthen reporting consistency and operational visibility.
A pre/post approach was used. No improvement percentage is published without a verified supporting file.
An Arabic RTL platform connecting clients, lawyers, cases, court sessions, documents, tasks, payments, notifications, dashboards and granular permissions.
A real client project. Demonstration screenshots use illustrative records rather than claimed production metrics.
03Professional experience
My background moves across field collection, case management, MEAL, information management and system implementation. That is why I design for the people who enter the data as well as the people who need to act on it.

I work across the full delivery path: understanding requirements, designing the data model and workflow, building the system or automation, deploying it within real constraints, training users and supporting improvement over time.
07Start with the operation
Share the current process, its users, its recurring problems and the decisions it must support. We can identify the most practical first move.
