  • Pay Range : $20.57 to $27.60 per hour, based on experience and education.
  • Thoughtfully Designed Schedules : We offer a predictable schedule with a single, direct rate of pay, including :
  • Part-time roles with flexible 5-, 3- or 2-day-per-week options.
  • Opportunities to pick up additional hours on Saturdays
  • Fully Paid Training & Certification : Kickstart your career with Cortica with a comprehensive 4-week, in-person orientation that includes hands-on training, a Board-Certified Autism Technician (BCAT) exam review, and full coverage of your exam fees. We’re invested in your success from day one.
  • Referral Bonus : Earn between $250-$500 for successful referrals.
  • Cell Phone Stipend : Stay connected with support from us.
  • Paid Drive Time and Mileage Reimbursement : We value your time on the road and include toll reimbursement in select areas.
  • 401(k) with Company Matching : Secure your future with our generous plan.
  • Ongoing Professional Development : Access continuous training through in-person and online opportunities.
  • Supportive Environment : Collaborate with and receive expert coaching from Lead BTs, ABA Assistant Supervisors, and ABA Supervisors who champion your growth.
  • Career Advancement : Opportunities to grow your career 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.

Your Impact & Responsibilities :

  • 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.
  • Who We’re Looking For :

  • Experience working with children (experience with autism is a plus!).
  • High School or equivalent, bachelor’s or master’s degree.
  • Willingness to obtain your BCAT credential within 90 days of your start date (We provide all training!).
  • A valid driver’s license and reliable transportation (within a 30–40-minute drive radius).
  • Tech-savvy with EMR systems and Microsoft Office tools.
  • Our Inclusive Culture :

  • Transdisciplinary Approach : Collaborate with experts in various fields to care for the whole child.
  • Collaborative Process : Develop individualized care plans alongside families and clinicians.
  • Strength-Based, Neurodiversity-Affirming Model : Focus on building on each child’s unique strengths rather than emphasizing deficits.
  • Join Cortica’s team and make a meaningful impact by applying a strength-based, neurodiversity-affirming ABA therapy model . Help children recognize and build on their unique abilities, fostering positive relationships and skills that translate across home, school, and community settings. Be part of a progressive approach that combines neuroscience and developmental models to empower each child to thrive.
