Job Description

ABS Kids is a dedicated organization focused on improving the lives of children with autism and their families. As a committed provider of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy services, ABS Kids aims to create meaningful and positive changes in children's developmental progress. The company works diligently to support not only the children but also their families and communities by delivering compassionate, evidence-based behavioral health interventions. ABS Kids embraces diversity and inclusion, fostering a workplace culture where every individual's unique story is valued and celebrated. They offer equal employment opportunities to all candidates regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity, or veteran status. Their mission is driven by the impactful "wow moments" seen throughout the therapeutic journey, which inspire the team to continuously evolve and deliver exceptional care.

The role of Behavior Technician at ABS Kids is designed for individuals looking to make a real difference in the lives of children with autism spectrum disorder. Whether you are entry-level or a seasoned Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), the company provides flexible part-time shifts that can be tailored to fit your schedule, offering options such as 8:00am-5:00pm, 9:00am-6:00pm, 12:00pm-7:00pm, and 3:00pm-7:00pm from Monday through Friday. The position offers competitive compensation starting at $20.00 to $24.50 per hour, with increased pay for those with RBT certification. ABS Kids also offers paid RBT certification training, enabling those without prior experience to quickly get up to speed with hands-on coaching. Additional premium pay of $1.00 per hour is available for bilingual technicians, especially those fluent in Spanish and English, when matched to bilingual-required client sessions. Experience in childcare, education, or related fields such as psychology or social work is valued, but not required, as full training and supportive resources are provided.

This role is much more than a job; it is an opportunity to build transferable skills for a rewarding career in behavioral health while positively impacting a child's life. You will not only engage with children through play and therapeutic activities but also collect vital behavioral data, maintain a safe environment, and assist in teaching essential life skills such as motor development, hygiene, social interactions, and daily living skills. ABS Kids supports professional growth with a robust LAUNCH career path featuring clear milestones, bonuses, and promotions. Additional benefits include paid time off, 401(k) with company match, mileage reimbursement, free continuing education, CPR and safety training, and an employee assistance program that offers financial advice, counseling, and mental health resources. The organization emphasizes a supportive network with opportunities for virtual connections and local events, creating a collaborative and enjoyable workplace atmosphere.

If you have a heart for helping children and possess reliability, patience, and enthusiasm, ABS Kids welcomes your application. The company values a calm and steady presence combined with tech savviness to learn data collection systems. Reliable transportation is important as travel to client homes and other locations will be necessary. Fluency in Spanish and English is strongly preferred but not mandatory. Whether you have experience working with children, adults with special needs, or have backgrounds in caregiving, nannying, teaching, or social sciences, you have a place at ABS Kids. Join a team where your work truly matters and helps build brighter futures for children in need.
