Job Description

ABS Kids is a dedicated organization committed to making a positive impact in the lives of children and families affected by autism spectrum disorder. As a leading provider of individualized support and services, ABS Kids focuses on delivering evidence-based behavioral interventions designed by Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs). The company's mission revolves around celebrating the "wow moments" of growth and achievement for each child, emphasizing a culture of inclusivity and diversity where every team member's unique background and story are valued. ABS Kids fosters a supportive work environment that embraces equal employment opportunities, ensuring a diverse workforce free from discrimination based on race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity, or Veteran status.

This role is an exciting opportunity for compassionate and energetic individuals who have experience working with children or adults with special needs in California. The position offers a competitive hourly wage ranging from $20.00 to $24.50, with additional financial incentives, including a $500 bonus after 90 days of employment and an increase for Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) certification. Staff members receive paid drive time and mileage reimbursement, a 401(k) retirement plan with company match, earned paid time off for every hour worked, and paid training to support their professional development.

As a Behavior Technician at ABS Kids, you will play an essential role in shaping the lives of clients by implementing individualized behavior plans and protocols under BCBA supervision. This position involves providing one-on-one support and collecting data on client behavior to track progress effectively. Your daily responsibilities will encourage the development of vital life skills such as motor abilities, personal hygiene, daily living routines, potty training, and social-emotional competencies. You will maintain a safe and respectful environment for both clients and staff while engaging in dynamic and physically active tasks that require moving on and off the floor frequently.

The organization supports its employees through the LAUNCH career path, offering clear milestones alongside bonuses and promotions to reward dedication and growth. The referral bonus program, ongoing free continuing education, CPR and safety training, and access to mental health and financial counseling resources further underline ABS Kids' commitment to employee well-being and development. Additionally, the company encourages building professional networks through virtual office platforms and local events, allowing employees to connect and learn from colleagues nationwide.

This role is perfect for dependable, tech-savvy individuals who are enthusiastic about working with science-based methods proven to be effective in behavioral health. Reliable transportation is necessary to travel to client homes and other locations across California. The position not only enables you to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children with autism but also offers transferable skills that pave the way for future careers in behavioral health fields. Join ABS Kids to become a part of a passionate team, dedicated to creating moments of joy and accomplishment representing the true purpose of this impactful work.
