Why This Role Stands Out
This hybrid role offers a fantastic opportunity to make a real difference in children's lives while advancing your career in a supportive environment that prioritizes your growth with paid RBT certification and clear advancement paths. You'll thrive here if you have a passion for coaching and motivating young children, and you're eager to develop valuable clinical skills with a company dedicated to your success. Apply today to join a team where you can learn, earn, and grow!

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.
$23–$25/hr + Paid RBT Certification + Multiple $1/hr Growth Opportunities
Love coaching, encouraging, and helping young kids build new skills? We want to meet with you to discuss our Behavior Technician role!
At FirstSteps, you’ll work one-on-one with children ages 2–13 with autism, using your creativity, patience, and ability to motivate kids to help them build communication, play, social, and everyday life skills. No ABA experience required. We’ll teach you the clinical skills, pay for your RBT certification, and support your growth every step of the way.
