Hello,
If you have experience using a screen reader, or building applications or games for screen reader users, please list that in your resume, it will be a huge bonus. If you go through the job requirements and craft your resume to fit the job requirements, that is best, as this is probably not a typical job opening for a developer.
Thank you,

The Smith-Kettlewell Eye Research Institute<https://www.ski.org/mission-statement> (SKERI) is a nonprofit research institute that focuses on blindness and visual impairments. SKERI researchers work on several areas, but the Coughlan Lab is focused on building tools to help blind people become more independent.
Please apply on Indeed, and send any questions to:

Thank you, and I hope someone on this list applies! SKERI is an amazing place to work.
