About the Team and Opportunity
SigFig’s A11y team is pivotal to the success of our users and our partners as we reinvent personal finance. Our team is made up of A11y QA, A11y engineer and accessibility SME. Our multi-functional team collaborates across the entirety of SigFig by working with sales, marketing, engineering, and product managers to help craft user-centered solutions and lead innovation with inclusive thinking practices. The soul of inclusive design is the people crafting it and we want to work with not just the best but also people that bring new points of view and different experiences that will improve our practice.
Our team’s philosophy is that we lead with design, powered by diversity and organization-wide collaboration as we help people improve their financial lives.
This is a hybrid role where you would be partially working with our parent design team which consists of a team of brilliant designers and developers to build our design system that will ensure the best user experience for millions of investors and financial advisors.
You would also be working as an A11y team by performing accessibility audits on design, development and supporting our QA team in finding barriers for users.
This is a new team and you would have an opportunity to help shape the A11y best practices and help guide and support junior resources.
We have two main goals for the design system:
1. Ensure all our frontend components follow our accessibility standards;
2. Frontend R&D tool to test new user experience concepts.
You would be vital in helping all our users achieve their financial goals with our elegant and innovative design system.
