Description

At Soar Autism Center, we are dedicated to enhancing the lives of children on the autism spectrum. As we strive to innovate and build a better model of care for kids, the role of the Bilingual Behavior Technician or RBT (Registered Behavior Technician) becomes paramount. Through our specialized approach, we empower these children, guiding them towards their full potential.

Our methods draw from the principles of the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM), a play-based form of Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) therapy. By joining our team, you'll contribute significantly to our mission-driven care model.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Provide one-on-one ABA therapy to children aged 2-6 in our clinic, adhering to high standards of care.
  • Deliver therapy in both English and Spanish to support our diverse client base.
  • Implement intervention plans crafted by our expert BCBAs, ensuring alignment with Applied Behavioral Analysis therapy principles.
  • Provide bilingual support during family meetings, communicating in both English and Spanish.
  • Foster relationships with families, keeping them informed about their child's progress within the ABA framework.
  • Engage in ongoing training and development, staying updated with advancements in ABA therapy and RBT certification.

Qualifications:

  • Proficiency in both English and Spanish (Proficiency Test required for additional pay increase).
  • Strong preference for either enrollment in or completion of a degree program. Bonus for degrees in Child Development, Psychology, or related fields
  • Ability to achieve and maintain RBT certification (Soar will provide paid training)
  • Previous experience with children and enjoyment working with children
  • Must have reliable transportation to both training location and local center. Punctuality is essential
  • Must be able to meet the following physical requirements: sit and stand frequently, shift positions quickly, lift up to 50 lbs., sit/kneel on the floor for extended periods of time, sit in a chair, stand, walk, and occasionally run short distances to catch up with a client
  • Ability to work on a team

What We Offer:

  • $20.50 - $26.00/hour with regular bonus and promotion opportunities, including an additional $1/hour for bilingual proficiency.
  • Comprehensive health benefits, including medical, dental, and vision plans
  • Student loan repayment and tuition reimbursement benefits
  • Priority access for in-network mental health support through our partnership with Sol Mental Health
  • Opportunities for career exploration in Behavior Analysis, Speech Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Psychology, and other roles
  • A guaranteed minimum of 30 hours per week for full-time roles
  • Supportive training for RBT certification and ABA therapy best practices
  • Tons of support from our multi-disciplinary team
  • A collaborative and fun environment where every team member's contribution is valued
