Who We Are

Teal Media is a full-service creative and design agency with a conscience. We believe purposeful design can transform organizations, inspire action, and enable progress.

  • Partner closely with the CTO to review deliverables, align on technical direction, and ensure work meets requirements before client delivery.

  • Collaborate with UX/UI designers, backend developers, and project leads to create seamless, high-quality digital experiences.

  • Help manage front-end task planning, resource allocation, and timelines; communicate clearly with internal teams and external clients.

  • Mentor and guide junior and mid-level developers, conduct code reviews, and help enforce front-end best practices and coding standards.

  • Lead technical discovery and evaluation phases, exploring new frameworks, tools, and solutions to strengthen project outcomes.

  • Support recruiting, interviewing, and onboarding of new front-end developers as the team grows.

  • Document front-end architecture, component libraries, and processes to ensure maintainability and scalability.

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
