• Create reusable, maintainable UI components and integrate them with REST APIs.
• Follow secure coding practices based on OWASP guidelines.

• Understanding of Section 508 and ADA requirements for web applications
• Semantic HTML5 and correct use of ARIA roles, states, and properties
• Keyboard accessibility: logical tab order, visible focus, focus management in dialogs and single-page app (SPA) route changes, no keyboard traps
• Accessible forms: labels, error messages, and required-field indicators
• Color contrast requirements and text alternatives for images and icons
• Basic hands-on testing with at least one screen reader (NVDA, JAWS, or VoiceOver)
• Familiarity with accessibility testing tools such as axe DevTools, WAVE, or Lighthouse

Tools and integration

• Understanding of REST APIs and JSON
• Basic Git (clone, branch, commit, pull requests)
• Comfortable using browser developer tools for debugging.

Preferred Competencies:

• Angular CDK accessibility features (a11y module, FocusTrap, LiveAnnouncer) or accessible use of Angular Material
