Accessibility (a11y) Specialist — Digital Forms Modernization

Role overview
XTGlobal is seeking an Accessibility Specialist to validate and improve the accessibility of web forms being modernized on Adobe Experience Manager (AEM). Working alongside developers, QA, and business analysts, you will evaluate AEM Adaptive Forms — converted from legacy Adobe (LiveCycle/XFA) and HTML forms — against WCAG 2.1 Level AA, identify conformance gaps, and provide clear, actionable remediation guidance.
You will act as the team’s accessibility subject-matter expert, helping shift accessibility into design and development so that compliance is built in rather than retrofitted — reducing rework and ensuring forms reach client review already conformant.
Key responsibilities
● Evaluate AEM Adaptive Forms for conformance to WCAG 2.1 Level AA (and Section 508 / applicable standards) using both automated tooling and structured manual testing.
● Perform manual accessibility testing with assistive technologies — screen readers (NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver, TalkBack), keyboard-only navigation, screen magnification,



and high-contrast / zoom / reflow scenarios.
● Validate the elements most critical to accessible forms, including:
○ Focus & tab order — logical, predictable keyboard focus order across all fields and controls.
○ Labels, headers & help text — programmatically associated field labels and headers, accessible tooltips and instructional text, and correct formatting/markup.
○ Input prompts & instructions — explicit prompts, required-field indication, and format/constraint guidance presented accessibly.
○ Error handling — accessible error identification, descriptive messaging, correction suggestions, and proper formatting/announcement via ARIA live regions and error-to-field association.
● Review broader form accessibility: semantic structure, name/role/value, color contrast, focus visibility, target size, reflow, timeouts, and dynamic/status messages.
● Provide developer-friendly remediation
