About Asem Alabtah
I’m a Microsoft-certified Power Platform developer based in Amman, Jordan, working remotely with clients in the Gulf and open to projects further afield. Over 3 years and 25+ projects I’ve built Canvas and Model-Driven Apps, Power Automate workflows, Dataverse models, and Power Pages portals for businesses that needed software built properly.
How I ended up doing this
I started on the web side, writing JavaScript and React. What pulled me toward the Power Platform was watching how much business software gets abandoned: a system nobody uses because it was built around a process that does not exist, or a spreadsheet still running a department three years after the real system was bought.
The Power Platform is good at the gap in between. It gets you to working software fast enough that people will actually try it, and changing it later does not mean starting over. That matters more than it sounds, because the first version is almost never right.
Most of my work now is operational: apps used at gates, in yards, and on sites, by people who are not sitting at a desk and have no patience for software that gets in the way. That constraint has made me a better developer than any framework has.

How I work
I tell you when the answer is no
Not every process should become an app, and not every app should be rebuilt. Saying so costs me a project occasionally and saves you more than that.
The data model comes first
Most Power Platform projects that have to be redone were redone because the model underneath stopped matching the business. Getting that right early is unglamorous and it is where the risk actually sits.
You see it working before it is finished
Delivery in stages, not a reveal at the end. If something is heading the wrong way, the cheapest moment to find out is early.
I hand over what I build
Configuration belongs to the people who own the decisions. Where I can put a setting in your hands instead of in my code, I do, so you are not calling me to change a dropdown.
Want to know whether I’m the right fit?
30 minutes, no cost, no pitch. Bring the problem rather than the brief, and you’ll leave knowing whether this is worth continuing.
