**** About Salesforce
**** Salesforce is the #1 AI CRM, where humans with agents drive customer success together. Here, ambition meets action. Tech meets trust. And innovation isn’t a buzzword — it’s a way of life. The world of work as we know it is changing and we're looking for Trailblazers who are passionate about bettering business and the world through AI, driving innovation, and keeping Salesforce's core values at the heart of it all.

Ready to level-up your career at the company leading workforce transformation in the agentic era? You’re in the right place! Agentforce is the future of AI, and you are the future of Salesforce.
** About the role
** Slack is looking for a Senior Software Engineer to own Android accessibility across the app — from Slack Kit component-level fixes to platform-wide screen reader, testing, and compliance strategy. You’ll be the primary technical owner of Android a11y, working closely with the iOS/mobile accessibility team, design systems, and feature teams to make Slack usable for everyone.

** What you’ll do
*** Drive accessibility for Slack Kit Compose components — audit and fix issues, and build/maintain snapshot and automated a11y testing.
* Diagnose and fix Talk Back/framework issues and generalize fixes into shared utilities other teams can adopt.
* Own and evolve Android a11y test suites and infrastructure, including custom tooling and third-party integrations for automated UI-test coverage.
* Provide accessibility guidance to feature teams on complex UI work — labeling, focus order, state announcements, and audible feedback for interactive actions.
* Lead VPAT compliance efforts: triage and resolve related tickets, group recurring issues into epics, and clearly document Slack’s compliance posture.
* Plan and run accessibility testing across major features and partner with QA vendors on regression testing.
* Represent Android in cross-platform mobile accessibility planning, coordinating with iOS counterparts, design systems, and feature teams
* Mentor Android engineers on accessibility best practices, run onboarding sessions, and share knowledge broadly (docs, newsletters, external talks).
** What we’re looking for
*** 5+ years Android engineering experience, including Kotlin and Jetpack Compose in a team environment
* Hands-on expertise with Android accessibility APIs and Talk Back behavior.
* Experience building or maintaining accessibility testing infrastructure.
* Familiarity with accessibility compliance frameworks (e.g. WCAG, VPAT) and experience driving compliance work end-to-end.
* Strong cross-functional collaboration skills — you’ll work with design systems, iOS and feature teams regularly.
** Nice to have
*** Experience with design systems / component libraries and accessibility standards.
* Familiarity with third-party accessibility auditing tools or building custom static-analysis/scanning tools.
* Public speaking or writing on accessibility topics.
* Experience using Slack and a keen interest in making it better
** What It's Like Working Here
*** We provide generous benefits at Salesforce
* Autonomous, self-starter working environment
* We actively work on ways to be more inclusive in our culture and in our hiring
