Founder & Lead Engineer — NovaConvert
Background
I design and build reconciliation-aware financial document ingestion systems for bank and credit-card statements.
My work focuses on detecting extraction errors using deterministic accounting invariants (balances, debits/credits), particularly in scanned and multi-period PDFs where conventional OCR and AI pipelines fail silently.
Background includes hands-on bookkeeping, manual transaction entry, and reconciliation — which directly informed the design of my current system.
