Digital Accessibility Consultant driving accessibility strategies and compliance roadmap across Meta, Exelon, Sony, Barclays, etc.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Accessibility Engineer with 4+ years of experience driving WCAG 2.1/2.2, Section 508, EN 301 549, AODA, and ADA compliance across web, mobile, and virtual reality (VR) platforms. I integrate accessibility into the SDLC so inclusive design becomes a foundation, not a last-minute fix.
At Meta, I led cross-functional accessibility programs and managed teams of 20+ engineers, delivering end-to-end compliance audits with VPAT/ACR documentation. I’m deep in assistive technologies like JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, Narrator, TalkBack, and Switch Access, and I orchestrate rigorous testing across devices.
From auditing component libraries at the atomic level to running full-scale page evaluations, I translate standards into actionable remediation plans for engineering teams. I bring governance, KPIs, and roadmap execution to ensure measurable digital equity and legal compliance—while also building accessibility capabilities that scale across teams.
