Alexander Bogdanovski is an indie hacker and software developer with 14+ years of experience building scalable web applications and distributed systems from Bulgaria. He designs and ships backend-first platforms—authoring Para, a multitenant open-source backend, and Scoold, a popular Q&A platform—while operating commercial SaaS variants like ParaIO.com and Scoold Cloud. Technically fluent across Java, Node.js, Elasticsearch, Angular and AWS, he moves between backend architecture, NoSQL design and DevOps to deliver production-grade services. His GitHub work shows deep backend refactoring and dependency management, reflecting an emphasis on maintainable, server-side architecture rather than superficial feature work. A pragmatic bootstrapper, he combines hands-on engineering with product-minded entrepreneurship, having launched multiple profitable projects.
