ABA Behavior Technician

Job Description

Job Description

Immediate need for Spanish-speaking Behavior Technicians. Spanish proficiency is highly sought for several current client assignments in the Redwood City / San Mateo area. Non-Spanish-speaking candidates are still encouraged to apply and may be considered for other available cases.

Overview

Healthy Minds is seeking Behavior Technicians to provide one-on-one behavioral support to children and families in the Redwood City and San Mateo area.

This is a hands-on, direct-care role . Behavior Technicians work directly with clients to implement individualized treatment goals under clinical supervision while collecting behavioral and skill-acquisition data used by the clinical team to monitor progress and guide treatment.

Current opportunities are primarily in-home and/or school-based, with many cases occurring during weekday afternoon and after-school hours.

We welcome experienced Behavior Technicians and RBTs, as well as candidates with backgrounds in psychology, child development, education, behavioral health, special education, caregiving, or related fields. Recent graduates are encouraged to apply.

Responsibilities

• Provide one-on-one behavioral support to children in home and/or school settings
• Implement individualized skill-acquisition and behavior-support procedures as outlined in the client’s treatment plan and under clinical supervision
• Support treatment goals related to communication, social and adaptive skills, daily living skills, independence, and behavior
• Respond to challenging behavior using approved procedures outlined in the treatment plan and guidance from the clinical team
• Collect accurate behavioral and skill-acquisition data throughout sessions
• Complete timely and accurate session notes and clinical documentation
• Build rapport with clients through play, preferred activities, reinforcement, prompting, and individualized teaching strategies
• Communicate relevant session information with supervisors and caregivers consistent with the treatment plan and clinical guidance
• Accept and implement clinical feedback as client needs and treatment goals evolve

Schedule & Case Opportunities

Schedules are based on individual client needs, authorized service hours, and family availability. Many current opportunities are during weekday afternoon and after-school hours, although schedules vary by client.

Team members are matched with cases based on location, availability, relevant experience, client needs, and scheduling compatibility.

Candidates seeking additional hours may be matched with multiple compatible clients as opportunities become available. Because ABA services are scheduled around individual client needs and family availability, schedules may not follow a traditional continuous 9-to-5 workday.

Part-time and fuller schedules may be available depending on current client needs, location, and employee availability. Specific weekly hours are not guaranteed and may vary by client assignment.

Qualifications

• Experience working with children, individuals with autism or developmental disabilities, behavioral health, special education, caregiving, or related populations is preferred
• Education or experience in psychology, child development, education, social work, behavior analysis, or a related field is a plus
• Previous ABA or Behavior Technician experience is preferred but not required for every opportunity
• Active RBT certification is valued and may be required for certain client assignments, but is not required for all Behavior Technician opportunities
• Ability to follow treatment protocols, collect accurate data, maintain professional documentation, and accept clinical feedback
• Ability to reliably travel to assigned client homes and/or schools within the agreed service area
• Spanish proficiency is highly desired for several current client assignments; non-Spanish-speaking candidates may still be considered for other available opportunities

Some client assignments may have additional training, credentialing, or funding-source requirements. These requirements will be discussed before placement.

Pay & Benefits

$23–$29/hour

Starting rates are determined based on relevant experience, education and training, active credentials or certifications, and other job-related assignment requirements.

• 40 hours of paid sick time per year, with use available after 90 days of employment
• Health benefit/HRA eligibility after 90 days for employees working 35+ hours per week, subject to applicable plan terms
• Flexible scheduling and case opportunities based on client availability
• Thoughtful client/therapist matching
• Ongoing clinical support and supervision
• Professional growth and experience-building opportunities
• Support and connection within a smaller team environment
