Job description

Looking for a technology job where you can do good and do well? Level Access, Inc. helps companies design and enhance their digital systems - including websites, web applications, software, hardware, and services - so they are usable by people with disabilities. Our work allows organizations to provide equal access through software, training, and consulting solutions.

We have an immediate opening for Accessibility Consultants. Our Accessibility Consultants collaborate with clients to test and validate user interfaces against accessibility requirements and consult on the effective technical implementation of digital accessibility requirements in client systems. You will apply your significant experience working with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and strong verbal and written communication skills.

Your Responsibilities

Test Set Definition – You will work with the client to set boundaries of the testing environment. The Accessibility Consultant will identify a representative test set of the user interface components found in the client’s system.

Testing – You will test client’s systems against specific manual tests and assistive technology tools. The Accessibility Consultant will enter test results into our software product – the industry’s first on-demand solution that integrates the business and technical aspects of complying with regulations, such as Section 508, the ADA, and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0.

Reporting – You will deliver testing results to the client and will participate in conference calls and follow-up discussions in order to create a road map to improve the accessibility and usability of the client’s IT system.

Technical Consultation – You will advise customers on the proper methods for implementing digital accessibility in systems. This will span a variety of web, mobile, hardware and document systems.

Business Process Consultation – You will work with customers to consult on the process implementation approach for accessibility in the client’s environment.

Your Qualifications

Technical Experience - If HTML, JavaScript, and CSS make you want to get out of the bed in the morning, this is probably a good job for you. We are looking for someone with a core understanding of web development technologies and how they impact the user experience. Experience developing user interfaces and PDF documents is a plus.

Communicative - You should be able to clearly and effectively communicate with clients in both written and verbal fashion. Written communication should show a high attention to detail. Verbal communication should be formal and indicate the ability to communicate complex topics concisely. Our consulting positions are on the front-line with our customers and it is imperative that you inspire confidence when speaking with customers.

Testing Focus - A large portion of what we do involves testing interfaces and validating that they conform to technical requirements. A desire to perform this validation and experience testing web-based interfaces for compliance with design specifications is critical.

Organized and Disciplined - Level Access has a culture to boldly go. We seek to hire and advance people that have this focus and can perform activities independently, without a large amount of management oversight. A candidate that will succeed in this environment has the desire to grow in the system over several years and seek to build towards big goals.

Excellence Focused - At Level Access, we have been successful because we constantly seek to be the best in our market across all the products and services we provide. In practice, we both charge more and invest more, with the end goal of providing far more value per dollar spent than our competitors. It also means that we focus on a very high level of quality and hold ourselves accountable for delivering against that level of quality.

  • BS degree in technology or equivalent work
  • 4+ years HTML, CSS, JavaScript
  • Accessibility knowledge a huge plus
Certification/Credentials a PLUS:
