Frontend Engineer, Accessibility Contractor

Brisk Teaching is the leading AI platform for K-12 educators, empowering teachers to deliver personalized, curriculum-aligned instruction at scale. They are seeking a Frontend Engineer to focus on accessibility improvements across their product, working closely with design and engineering teams to implement fixes based on an external accessibility audit.

Responsibilities:

• Work through the accessibility audit findings delivered by our external partner — triaging, prioritizing, and shipping fixes against a clear plan
• Remediate WCAG 2.1 AA issues across the Brisk Extension and our web app: semantic HTML, ARIA, keyboard navigation, focus management, color contrast, and screen reader support
• Partner closely with our design and engineering teams to upgrade components in the Brisk design system so accessibility is baked in for everything we ship after you leave
• Verify fixes the way real users would experience them — keyboard-only flows, NVDA and VoiceOver passes, and other automated tooling
• Pair with the audit firm to confirm remediations, close out tickets, and push back when their findings need clarification
• Document the patterns you put in place so the team can hold the line on accessibility after the engagement ends
• Use AI tools aggressively to move faster — for triage, refactors, generating test cases, and cutting through repetitive fix work without sacrificing quality
