Work That Actually Matters
If you've ever been told you're great with kids, endlessly patient, or the person friends call when they need someone dependable - you may already have what it takes.
You don't need an ABA background or a psychology degree. You need a high school diploma, reliable transportation, and a real desire to help children grow. We'll teach you the rest - and pay you along the way.
What Is a Behavior Technician, Anyway?
Great question - and a common one.
As a BT, you'll work one-on-one with a child on the autism spectrum, using play-based, evidence-driven techniques to build real-life skills: communicating, making friends, following routines, managing big feelings, and gaining independence.
You won't figure it out alone. Every BT works under a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) who designs each child's program and coaches you through it. All of our BTs become Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs), and some go on to become BCBAs or to careers in psychology, education, speech, or occupational therapy and more. This role is a launchpad.
What You'll Do
- Provide one-to-one ABA therapy to children ages 2 and up
- Follow individualized treatment plans from your supervising BCBA
- Turn playtime, snacks, and transitions into learning moments
- Collect accurate data and complete session notes
- Partner with families and your clinical team to celebrate every win
Pay & Perks
- $18–$20 per hour, based on experience and credentials
- Bonus paid when you complete your RBT Competency Check - we invest in your growth and reward it
- Clear path from BT to RBT
- Benefits available for FT positions
