Taewan Lim
I was born in Seoul, Korea. Currently, based in Vancouver, Canada.
I'm a frontend engineer. Previously at a fintech company in Seoul, where I built internal dashboards, a customer-facing loan site, and developer tooling as a VSCode extension.
Before switching to an engineering career, I had a product management background at a food delivery startup in Seoul. It helped me think not just about building features, but why they exist, which is a mindset I still carry.
I've also done a handful of different things. I picked blueberries in Tasmania, made bath bombs at a LUSH factory in Sydney, led beer tours in Seoul, and promoted a Korean theatre team at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Scotland.
You can also find me on LinkedIn and Linktree, or reach me via email.
