Descrierea jobului
We are looking for a detail-oriented and experienced Accessibility Consultant / Specialist to help drive accessibility across digital products and design processes.
In this role, you will act as an accessibility subject matter expert, helping UX, design, and engineering teams build digital experiences that are accessible, inclusive, and compliant with WCAG 2.2 and established accessibility best practices.
You will work across the product lifecycle, with a strong focus on identifying accessibility considerations early in the design process, evaluating UI/UX solutions, providing actionable guidance to designers and developers, and helping teams make informed accessibility decisions.
A key part of the role is the ability to confidently communicate accessibility requirements and advocate for accessible solutions, including when discussing trade-offs with designers, developers, product teams, or other stakeholders. You should be comfortable translating technical accessibility concepts into clear, practical recommendations that different audiences can understand and act upon.
Review UI/UX designs and product experiences to identify accessibility issues and potential WCAG 2.2 compliance gaps.
Proactively recommend inclusive alternative designs and practical solutions based on accessibility standards, established design patterns, and best practices.

Provide clear, detailed accessibility annotations and actionable technical recommendations for designers and developers.
Explain the rationale behind accessibility recommendations and confidently advocate for accessible solutions when working with stakeholders or discussing design and implementation trade-offs.
Support UX and design teams with accessibility-related questions and act as an internal accessibility consultant.
Collaborate closely with UX designers, visual designers, developers, product teams, and other cross-functional stakeholders to integrate accessibility into the software development lifecycle.
Perform manual and automated accessibility testing and independently identify, document, prioritize, and communicate accessibility issues.
Evaluate digital experiences using assistive technologies, including screen readers, screen magnification, voice access, and dictation software.
Provide guidance on how UI designs and components should be structured and implemented to support accessible interaction, navigation, responsive/reflow experiences, and keyboard operation.
Review accessibility considerations during the transition from design to code and support additional quality checks where required.
Contribute to accessibility reviews of reusable design patterns and components where applicable.
Participate in accessibility discussions, reviews, and knowledge-sharing sessions across the wider UX and engineering community.
Take ownership of assigned accessibility activities and manage multiple reviews and requests effectively with minimal supervision.
Stay current with evolving accessibility standards, assistive technologies, testing practices, and industry best practices.
EU flexible schedule with some overlap with US and India teams.
Weekly accessibility meetings + weekly 1:1s with the Accessibility Lead, depending on workload
