Zdravko Kolev

Zdravko Kolev is Manager of Product Development at Infragistics, where he leads work on Reveal, embedded analytics SDK. His work focuses on developer tooling and on how AI is changing the way software products are built, shipped and used.
In more than 12 years at Infragistics, he spent years fully dedicated to App Builder, the company’s low-code app development platform, and to Ignite UI, its UI component library for web developers. That background in developer tooling, SDK product management and technical content now shapes his work on Reveal. Today he leads a globally distributed team spanning the US, Uruguay and Bulgaria.
He has also driven AI adoption across the organization through hands-on work. He builds MCP servers, RAG pipelines, governance scaffolding and agentic workflows for internal teams, and he designed the AI Skills architecture for the Reveal SDK. That experience shapes his ISTA session, which compares embedded analytics with AI-generated dashboards and asks who should own a product’s customer-facing analytics.
Zdravko has published more than 45 articles on platforms including Solutions Review, SD Times, DZone, Medium, the App Builder blog and the Infragistics blog. He is also active in the Bulgarian tech community as a mentor at AIBEST and a lecturer at 9Academy.
