Seriously, accessibility technology is huge at MSFT and there are teams all over the place working on stuff, both MSR and applications inside product teams. Disclaimer: I work there.

Can confirm. Don’t forgot about MSFT subsidiaries like GitHub

That's a great tip, thanks!

That's great to hear. I've applied to some general postings - I don't see openings for teams working on accessibility for now, but will keep tabs on the website.

I would recommend getting a referral / anyone you know in ms to speak to the hiring managers directly. It will surely expedite the process

I'll try that, thanks!

Microsoft's CEO, Satya Nadella, puts significant emphasis on accessibility.
Satya's son, Zain (RIP), had cerebral palsy and that inspired him to address accessibility problems in technology.

+1 for MSFT. So far the most truly inclusive organization I worked for. They put their money where their mouth is.
