Riandre van der Voorden
Front-end Engineer · UI Engineer
I'm a front-end engineer with 2+ years shipping production web apps in Next.js, React and TypeScript. Founding engineer at Kliio, a project-delivery CRM for agencies, where I own the product UI and core app flows end to end.
At PixelMeta I've built 30+ client sites and lifted average Lighthouse performance scores by 40% across 20+ WordPress migrations. Strong in UI/UX (Figma) and accessible, fast front ends.
See work for shipped products, or find me on GitHub and LinkedIn. Remote, based in South Africa (UTC+2). Open to interesting front-end roles and collaborations.
I like working where design and engineering meet, and I'm happiest when the finished product feels considered, not just functional.
