Behavior Technician

About the role

As a Behavior Technician, you'll work one-on-one with children, helping them build communication, social, and problem-solving skills using evidence-based ABA techniques. Through evidence-based treatment, innovative technology, and exceptional clinical support, our clinicians achieve approximately 2X the clinical outcomes per therapy hour compared to the industry benchmark, giving you the opportunity to make an even greater impact in the lives of the children and families you serve.

Responsibilities

• Provide 1:1 ABA therapy in our centers or in home-based settings
• Reinforce positive behaviors using techniques from our industry-leading training program
• Track client progress using a company-issued iPad and data systems
• Collaborate with families and supervisors to support each child’s growth

Responsibilities listed are illustrative and may change at ACES’ discretion.

Requirements

• High school diploma or GED
• Fluent in Spanish highly preferred
• Comfort using tablet-based technology
• Reliable transportation, in-state valid driver’s license*, and active car insurance (Military and college students may be exempt for in-state driver’s license)
• Availability during times most needed by families
• Commitment to completing our paid virtual RBT training program

Direct work with clients may include, without limitation, the following physical demands: sitting, kneeling, squatting, running, twisting and turning, reaching above shoulders and/or frequent physical transitions.

Qualifications

• Patience, empathy, and a passion for helping children
• Strong communication skills with both children and caregivers
• Sound judgment in dynamic situations
• A desire for a meaningful, hands-on career

Experience working with children is a plus, including backgrounds such as camp counselor, nanny, preschool teacher, paraprofessional, teacher’s aide, or childcare volunteer—but all applicants are welcome.

Benefits

• Competitive pay and benefits
• $1/hour increase after your first year (if in good standing)
• Paid Registered Behavior Technician (RBT®) certification
• Paid, best-in-class training program
• Career advancement and mentorship opportunities
• Unlimited employee referral bonuses (up to $500 per referral)
• Medical, dental, and vision benefits available to many part-time employees
• Company-issued iPad

Pay

The pay scale provided is the hourly wage range ACES reasonably expects to pay for clinical work (i.e., direct treatment services) performed by team members in the position. ACES pays a different rate for non-clinical work (i.e., trainings, travel time, meetings, etc.) performed by team members, which is paid at $12.00/hour.
