Certified Test Consultant

Current Hiring Priorities

At Digital Accessibility by WeCo, we are always looking to connect with talented accessibility professionals who are passionate about creating inclusive digital experiences.

While we do not have an immediate need to add additional Certified Test Consultants at this time, we are actively building a bench of qualified candidates for future client opportunities. As a mission-driven organization, we know that the right people are essential to our long-term success, and we never want to miss the opportunity to connect with exceptional talent.

If your experience and interests align with our needs, we may reach out for a sample of your work, and an exploratory interview/conversation, even if an immediate opening is not available.

We encourage interested candidates to apply and become part of our growing network of accessibility professionals.

Please note that hiring timelines may vary based on client demand and project availability.

Certified Test Consultants work in a flexible, project-based environment. Testing opportunities vary based on client needs, project timelines, disability representation needs, technology requirements, and contractor availability.

CTCs are invited to participate in projects that align with their lived experience, assistive technology use, device/platform experience, and availability. Some contractors may participate frequently, while others may participate occasionally depending on project needs.

This role is designed to provide flexibility. Contractors are able to accept or decline project opportunities based on their schedules and availability.

Because work is client-driven and project-based:

• Hours are not guaranteed.
• Project frequency may vary.
• Participation opportunities may change over time based on current client and testing needs.

WeCo values building long-term relationships with Certified Test Consultants and works to create meaningful opportunities for individuals to share their lived experiences and perspectives.

NOTE:

This role includes a job requirement of living with a disability as part of a subject matter expertise.

This role is centered on personal experiences with disability and how those experiences influence interaction with digital technology. Candidates moving through the hiring process should be comfortable discussing technology use, digital barriers, usability experiences, and participating in role-related evaluation activities such as practice tests or demonstrations.

Because personal experience with disability is an essential component of this role, additional eligibility, disclosure, or verification steps related to role requirements may occur at later stages of the hiring or onboarding process.

Certified Test Consultants may participate in the following activities:

• Completing guided usability testing activities for websites, software, mobile applications, or digital documents.
• Sharing honest feedback about digital experiences, accessibility barriers, frustrations, or successes encountered during testing.
• Participating in live usability sessions, recorded sessions, surveys, interviews, or group discussions.
• Communicating observations in a respectful, professional, and constructive manner.
• Completing assigned testing activities within communicated timelines.
• Explaining how disability-related needs, assistive technology, adaptive techniquesor personal strategies, impact the way digital platforms are accessed and used.

• Using memory aids or written steps to complete multi-step digital tasks
• Repeating actions or re-reading content to confirm…
