He obtained his experience from different positions he occupied since the start of his career in both the private and public sectors.  He served as legal counsel in national and multinational law firms, then moved to the public sector.  In the public sector, he served as the Legal Counsel of the Jordanian WTO Unit, and was the founding Director of the National Production Protection, the competent authority in Jordan investigating antidumping, countervailing, and safeguards cases.  

During his seven years as Director, he investigated and adjudicated numerous trade remedy proceedings and represented the Government of Jordan in dispute resolution negotiations with WTO member countries.  Baha'a managed the directorate for 7 years, adjudicating numerous trade remedies actions.

Upon moving back to the private sector in 2007, Baha'a established Armouti & Associates, where he has represented industrial and trading companies in trade remedy and competition cases in Jordan and the region, and has provided corporate services to national and multinational companies.  He also reviewed trade remedy policies and legislation for the Ministry of Commerce and Industry in Saudi Arabia and was involved in drafting legislation for different governmental institutions in Jordan and the region.
