What does an accessibility design associate do?

An Accessibility Design Associate works to ensure that digital and physical products, services, or environments are accessible to people with disabilities. They collaborate with designers, developers, and stakeholders to identify and remove barriers, applying accessibility standards such as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). Their responsibilities may include conducting accessibility audits, providing recommendations, and supporting inclusive design practices throughout the development process. The goal is to create user experiences that are usable by everyone, regardless of ability.
