Job Description

Job Description

Title: Behavior Interventionist (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.

Compensation & Schedules:

  • Pay Range: $23.62 to $31.69 per hour, based on experience and education.
  • Thoughtfully Designed Schedules: We offer a range of predictable schedules with a single, direct rate of pay, including:
  • Full-time roles with 5-day-per-week commitments.
  • Part-time roles with flexible 5-, 3-, or 2-day-per-week options.
  • Opportunities to pick up additional hours on Saturdays.
  • Weekly hours range from 6 to 40.

Why Choose Cortica?

Here's what makes us different:

  • Referral Bonus: Earn between $250-$500 for successful referrals.
  • Cell Phone Stipend: Stay connected with support from us.
  • Paid Training and Onboarding: Enjoy a comprehensive 4-week, in-person, hands-on orientation and BCAT exam review , setting you up for success from day one.
  • Paid Drive Time and Mileage Reimbursement: We value your time on the road and include toll reimbursement in select areas.
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision Coverage*: Available for full-time and part-time roles (26-29 hours).
  • 401(k) with Company Matching: Secure your future with our generous plan.
  • Continuing Education Reimbursement*: $2,000 annually to support your continued professional development.
  • Generous Time Off*: Enjoy up to 22 days off in your first year, with an increase to 26 days after your first 12 months—giving you the time you need to rest, recharge, and thrive.
  • Ongoing Professional Development: Access continuous training through in-person and online opportunities.
  • Supportive Environment: Collaborate with and receive expert coaching from Lead BIs, ABA Assistant Supervisors, and ABA Supervisors who champion your growth.
  • Career Advancement: Opportunities to grow your career through 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.

What You'll Do:

  • Complete Cortica's orientation and BCAT training.
  • 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.

What We're Looking For:

  • Experience working with children (experience with autism is a plus!).
  • Masters, bachelor's degree, high school or equivalent 
  • Willingness to obtain your BCAT credential within 90 days (we'll help!).
  • Availability for weekday afternoons/evenings and optional Saturdays.
  • A valid driver's license and reliable transportation (within a 30-40 minute drive radius).
  • Tech-savvy with EMR systems and Microsoft Office tools.

What Makes Cortica Different from Other ABA Companies?

  • Transdisciplinary Approach: Work alongside experts in occupational therapy, speech-language therapy, pediatrics, and more—because we care for the whole child.
  • Collaboration First: We create individualized care plans with families and clinicians working together.
  • Quality Over Quantity: We focus on clinical outcomes, not just session counts.

Be part of a team that's redefining ABA therapy with compassion, innovation, and collaboration.
