Job description
About FirstSteps
The FirstSteps Team is inspired by the belief that every child deserves the opportunity to achieve their fullest potential. To that end, our mission is twofold: to provide the best evidence-based, behavior analytic treatment to our children diagnosed with autism and related learning differences, and to offer a positive, collaborative, and dynamic work experience for our team. We are steadfastly committed to ongoing training and mentorship of our employees, always motivated to support the next generation of clinical leaders in our field and at FirstSteps. Our greatest reward is witnessing the rapid and joyful learning of our little ones and knowing that together, we are creating more happy days for the kids and families we serve.
Your Clinical Growth Shouldn't Stop at Certification.
You became a BCBA to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children and families. You deserve a team that invests in your growth just as intentionally as you invest in theirs.
We're a privately owned, clinician-led ABA organization with 21 years of experience providing compassionate, individualized care in California. We're a team where clinicians build careers, deepen their expertise, and grow together which is reflected in our average BCBA tenure of 7 years.
A Different Kind of Clinical Environment
Stay close to the work. Our Program Directors (BCBAs) typically support 12–14 children and lead clinical teams of 7–12 RBTs, creating space for individualized clinical decisions, meaningful collaboration, and hands-on team development.
Learn from leaders invested in the field. Lead by our Chief Clinical Officer Courtney Tarbox and Director of Research Dr. Jonathan Tarbox, we bring research-informed thinking into clinical practice and provide opportunities to engage with developments in the field.
Keep growing. From company-sponsored CEUs and CASP membership to conference opportunities and ongoing mentorship, we invest in your continued clinical development.
Clear Expectations. Meaningful Autonomy.
- 115 billable hours per month for full-time BCBAs
- $85K–$95K annual salary, depending on experience
- Up to $6K in clinical performance incentives
- Individualized clinical decision-making and collaboration with families, schools, and providers
Benefits That Support You
- Medical, dental, and vision with generous employer contributions
- 401(k) with 4% company match
- Company-sponsored BACB CEUs, CASP membership, and annual conference stipend with paid attendance
- Generous PTO and 10 paid holidays
