Angular Frontend Web Developer, Accessibility Focus

Role Overview

• Develop Angular components and UI features against sprint commitments, implementing designs from Figma using approved Design System components, tokens, and patterns
• Implement frontend accessibility standards in all UI code: proper ARIA attributes, semantic HTML, keyboard navigation, focus management, and color contrast compliance per WCAG 2.1 AA and Section 508
• Ensure all new UI code passes automated accessibility checks (aXe, pa11y) in the CI pipeline before merge, with zero critical or major findings
• Contribute to accessibility remediation of legacy UI code, resolving existing accessibility defects and preventing new ones from being introduced
• Write frontend tests (component tests, service tests, integration tests) achieving at least 90% branch coverage on all new and modified code
• Complete code reviews within 1 business day with substantive feedback focused on code quality, accessibility implementation, and Design System adherence
• Collaborate with UX designers on accessible design patterns, with backend developers on API contracts and data integration, and with accessibility specialists to resolve evaluation findings efficiently
• Contribute to the Design System through the governance process: propose new components or patterns, ensure contributions meet WCAG 2.1 AA, and document usage in Figma and Confluence
• Build responsive, cross-browser interfaces that work across supported browsers and devices
• Participate fully in Agile ceremonies within a SAFe framework: Sprint Planning, Daily Standup, Sprint Review, Retrospective, and Backlog Refinement
• Support production triage when assigned, ensuring all fixes follow the standard code review and CI/CD pipeline process
• Maintain clean, well-documented TypeScript and Angular code that meets coding standards and passes SonarQube quality gates

Requirements

• 3 years of applicable experience in frontend web development
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field (or 3 years of additional experience)
• Proficiency in Angular (version 12+), TypeScript, HTML5, and CSS3, with hands-on experience building component-based single-page applications
• Strong working knowledge of WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility standards and Section 508 compliance, with demonstrated experience implementing accessible UI patterns including ARIA attributes, semantic HTML, keyboard navigation, and focus management
• Experience with automated accessibility testing tools such as aXe, pa11y, or WAVE, integrated into development or CI workflows
• Experience implementing designs from Figma or similar design tools, translating visual specifications and accessibility annotations into production code
• Experience working with a shared Design System or component library, consuming and contributing reusable UI components with documented usage patterns
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines (GitLab CI preferred) and understanding of how frontend builds, tests, and accessibility scans integrate into the deployment workflow
• Experience writing frontend unit and integration tests using frameworks such as Jasmine, Karma, or Jest
• Familiarity with code quality tools such as SonarQube, including understanding of branch coverage requirements and quality gate enforcement
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to provide clear status updates, collaborate with cross-functional partners on accessibility remediation, and document technical decisions
