Behavior Technician / RBT (Bonus Opportunity)

ABS Kids is a dedicated organization committed to improving the lives of children with autism spectrum disorder through Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy. At ABS Kids, the team believes in the power of "wow moments" - those pivotal instances of progress and breakthrough that motivate their work and fuel the mission. With a strong focus on family support and child development, ABS Kids values diversity and inclusion, ensuring a workplace culture where every individual is respected, heard, and celebrated. Their commitment to equal employment opportunities reinforces their dedication to creating a supportive and dynamic environment for all employees, regardless of race, gender, or background.

The role of Behavior Technician at ABS Kids offers both entry-level and seasoned professionals the chance to make a tangible difference in children’s lives. This position is designed for compassionate, motivated individuals who are eager to contribute to the development of essential life skills in children with autism. Behavior Technicians use play, patience, and effective ABA therapy techniques to teach and reinforce skills such as motor abilities, personal hygiene, social interactions, and emotional regulation. A keen eye for detail is necessary, as the role involves collecting and recording behavioral data to monitor each child’s progress effectively.

This position offers variable part-time shifts, ideal for those balancing other commitments. Candidates need availability Monday through Friday during standard business hours (8:00 am - 5:00 pm or 9:00 am - 6:00 pm). ABS Kids provides a rewarding hourly wage ranging from $18.00 to $24.00, with increases once certification as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) is achieved. Perhaps the most appealing aspect of this role is that no prior experience is necessary, as comprehensive paid training is provided, including pathway assistance for RBT certification. This makes the position an excellent opportunity for those who have experience in related fields such as childcare, education, or healthcare, or who have studied psychology, social work, or sociology, to pivot into a meaningful career in behavioral health.

Additional incentives include a bonus of $500-$1000 depending on the candidate's experience level, paid time off earned with each hour worked, mileage reimbursement or paid drive time, a 401(k) plan with company match, and employee assistance programs that provide free counseling, financial advice, and mental health resources. The organization also offers free continuing education and safety training, a referral bonus program, and a clearly defined career path with rewards and promotional opportunities. The supportive network extends nationally and locally, fostering a sense of community among employees through virtual connections and social events.

Working at ABS Kids is not just a job; it is a mission-driven career that allows individuals to help children discover their potential and achieve brighter futures. By joining ABS Kids as a Behavior Technician, candidates can expect a fulfilling role that combines meaningful impact with professional growth and personal development opportunities.
