Harry Bird

Odoo Implementation Consultant β€” Sydney, Australia

I help small and medium businesses replace their patchwork of tools with a single, integrated Odoo system. From requirements gathering and data migration to custom module development and staff training, I run the full implementation lifecycle.

  • πŸ—οΈ 2 live Odoo deployments β€” 30,000+ records migrated, 7+ staff trained
  • πŸŽ“ Master of Data Science (with Excellence), UNSW
  • πŸŽ“ Bachelor of Engineering (Hons), Mechanical & Aerospace, University of Canterbury
  • πŸ—£οΈ English (Native) Β· Spanish (B2)

What I do

End-to-end Odoo Implementation

  • Lead SME rollouts from requirements β†’ deployment β†’ training β†’ ongoing support
  • Migrate legacy data (Microsoft Access, CirclePOS, Xero, ClockShark) into Odoo
  • Build custom modules when off-the-shelf doesn't fit: VoIP integrations, payroll rules, multi-company logic, e-commerce variants, inventory valuation
  • Train non-technical staff and document workflows so the system lasts after I leave

Data Migration & Integration

  • Structured migration of 15,000–30,000+ records with validation and reconciliation
  • API integrations with 3rd-party metadata providers, shipping carriers, and accounting tools
  • Database design, data quality governance, and reporting inside Odoo

Custom Development

  • Backend: Python, Odoo ORM, PostgreSQL
  • Frontend: Nuxt 3, Vue, SvelteKit (for customer portals and custom dashboards)
  • DevOps: Linux, Bash, Docker, Git

Other experience

  • Policy & Systems Analyst β€” Migrated legacy MS Access systems to PostgreSQL, designed reporting dashboards, and acted as the bridge between business users and technical teams
  • IoT Weather Monitoring β€” Arduino data acquisition + Dockerised Linux backend + real-time visualisation (shows I can build end-to-end systems, not just configure them)
  • Rail Network Feasibility Study β€” Stakeholder mapping, demand modelling, and economic viability analysis for large-scale public infrastructure
