Please feel free to forward this Mozilla QA opportunity to any job 
potential candidates you're aware of.

Mozilla Corporation is looking for a full time QA engineer and 
accessibility evangelist to test and promote accessibility in its 
software. Possible job locations are the Mozilla's offices in Mountain 
View, California or in Toronto, Canada.

The job will involve testing with a wide variety of 3rd party assistive 
technologies such as screen readers, screen magnifiers, onscreen keyboards 
and voice dictation software and on Windows, Linux and OS X.

The candidate we are looking for will be technically strong and ultimately 
be able to help develop tests for both the wide variety of internet 
content and the expanding end-user capabilities being developed by the 
growing Mozilla open source community. The candidate should be passionate 
about accessibility and be able to effectively help the Mozilla community 
become more knowledgeable with respect to accessibility topics.

Because of the community and evangelism portion of the job, the position 
is not entirely limited to QA. Occasional travel will be part of the job, 
such as to disability-related conferences like CSUN.

In addition, the QA candidate will be part of the Mozilla Corporation QA 
team, and will be expected to take part in other QA activities not related 
to accessibility.
