Available for opportunities

Hi, I'm Kim Tang

Front-end developer crafting high-performance web experiences with React, Next.js & TypeScript. Building products that reach 150,000+ users.

About

A bit about me

I'm a Sydney-based front-end developer with a background in Electrical Engineering from UTS. After graduating, I discovered my passion for building things people actually interact with — and pivoted into web development.

For the past 4+ years at Akcelo, I've been delivering pixel-perfect, production-ready applications for high-profile clients like McDonald's, A-League, and Queensland Airports. I specialize in translating complex Figma designs into scalable, performant UI using modern React ecosystems.

I care deeply about performance, clean architecture, and building component systems that scale. Whether it's a campaign microsite serving 150K+ users or a multi-site CMS platform, I bring the same attention to detail.
