Title: Behavior Technician (Naturalistic, Play-Based ABA)

Cortica is looking for dedicated, compassionate Behavior Technicians to join our growing team and help us design and deliver life-changing care for children with neurodevelopmental differences. At Cortica, we don't just offer jobs; we offer careers with purpose, growth, and support.

What We Offer:

  • Pay Range: $20.57 to $27.60 per hour, based on experience and education.

  • Thoughtfully Designed Schedules: We offer a predictable schedule with a single, direct rate of pay, including:

  • Part-time roles with flexible 5-, 3- or 2-day-per-week options.

  • Opportunities to pick up additional hours on Saturdays

  • Fully Paid Training & Certification: Kickstart your career with Cortica with a comprehensive 3-week, in-person orientation that includes hands-on training, a Board-Certified Autism Technician (BCAT) exam review, and full coverage of your exam fees. We're invested in your success from day one.

  • Referral Bonus: Earn between $250-$500 for successful referrals.

  • Cell Phone Stipend: Stay connected with support from us.

  • Paid Drive Time and Mileage Reimbursement: We value your time on the road and include toll reimbursement in select areas.

  • 401(k) with Company Matching: Secure your future with our generous plan.

  • Ongoing Professional Development: Access continuous training through in-person and online opportunities.

  • Supportive Environment: Collaborate with and receive expert coaching from Lead BTs, ABA Assistant Supervisors, and ABA Supervisors who champion your growth.

  • Career Advancement: Opportunities to grow your career by advancing to a BCBA role, ascending the Behavior Technician Clinical Ladder, or serving in a corporate support role.

  • Learn from Experts in Other Fields: Partner with BCBAs and experts in speech-language therapy, music therapy, occupational therapy, and physical therapy as well as counselors, pediatricians, neurologists, and nurse practitioners.

Your Impact & Responsibilities:

  • Provide 1:1 and group behavior-analytic services to children with autism and other neurodevelopmental differences.

  • Implement positive behavior strategies developed with your BCBA.

  • Use evidence-based practices to create meaningful progress for families.

  • Document session data to track and support treatment goals.

  • Collaborate closely with families and supervisors to build supportive environments.

  • Follow Cortica's crisis protocols, including de-escalation and mandated reporting.

Who We're Looking For:

  • Experience working with children (experience with autism is a plus).

  • High School or equivalent, bachelor's or master's degree.

  • Willingness to obtain your BCAT credential within 90 days of your start date (We provide all training).

  • Ability to consistently travel between client sites within a 30–40-minute radius using reliable transportation.

  • Tech-savvy with EMR systems and Microsoft Office tools.

Our Inclusive Culture:

  • Transdisciplinary Approach: Collaborate with experts in various fields to care for the whole child.

  • Collaborative Process: Develop individualized care plans alongside families and clinicians.

  • Strength-Based, Neurodiversity-Affirming Model: Focus on building on each child's unique strengths rather than emphasizing deficits.

Join Cortica's team and make a meaningful impact by applying a strength-based, neurodiversity-affirming ABA therapy model. Help children recognize and build on their unique abilities, fostering positive relationships and skills that translate across home, school, and community settings. Be part of a progressive approach that combines neuroscience and developmental models to empower each child to thrive.
