We are looking for an Accessibility Developer to help design, build, test, and improve digital products that are usable by people of all abilities. In this role, you will work closely with software engineers, designers, product managers, QA specialists, and content teams to ensure websites, applications, and digital tools meet accessibility standards and provide an inclusive user experience. You will play a key role in embedding accessibility into the full product lifecycle, from early planning and design reviews to development, testing, release, and ongoing optimization.
The ideal candidate understands both the technical and human side of accessibility. You should be comfortable applying standards such as WCAG, ARIA, and semantic HTML while also appreciating how real users interact with assistive technologies including screen readers, keyboard navigation, voice input, and magnification tools. You will identify barriers, recommend practical solutions, and help teams implement accessible patterns that improve usability for all users.
As an Accessibility Developer, you will review front-end code, collaborate on accessible component libraries, and support teams in creating compliant and user-friendly interfaces. You will conduct audits, document findings, prioritize remediation efforts, and help establish best practices across projects. You may also contribute to accessibility training, internal guidelines, and governance processes that strengthen organizational maturity in inclusive development.
Success in this position requires strong communication skills, attention to detail, and the ability to translate accessibility requirements into actionable technical guidance. You should be able to explain issues clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, balancing compliance needs with product goals and development timelines. A proactive mindset is important, as you will often help teams prevent accessibility issues before they reach production.
This role is well suited for someone who is passionate about inclusive technology and wants to make a measurable impact on digital experiences. Whether improving navigation for keyboard users, ensuring proper color contrast, enhancing form usability, or validating compatibility with assistive technologies, your work will directly support equitable access to information and services. If you enjoy solving front-end challenges, advocating for inclusive design, and raising the quality of digital products, this is an excellent opportunity to grow your career while contributing to meaningful outcomes.
