Attention energetic and caring individuals!

If you love children and are looking for an exciting entry-level career in the field of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), we are excited to hear from you! The best part is, there is no experience in the field of ABA necessary to apply. Silicon Valley ABA (SVABA) is a company striving to make a difference in the lives of neurodivergent children and young adults, and you can join our team.

What is a Behavior Technician (BT)?

A BT provides 1:1 direct services to children and young adults with autism. BTs are trained in ABA principles and teaching strategies, both through an online training series and on-the-job experience. All BTs work under the supervision of SVABA’s clinical staff, which generally consists of a case supervisor and a case manager. The clinical staff develop individualized programs and evaluates the learner’s progress on an ongoing basis. Clinical staff provide both initial and ongoing training and support for BTs to help them understand how to implement the program. Services generally take place in the child’s home, but may also occur in the clinic and/or in the community
