Are you a match for this role?

This is a part time role (not a temporary or seasonal role). The amount of hours we can schedule a Behavior technician is based on both when our clients require care, and how many cases a Behavior Technician is able to manage while still performing high quality services. If your availability to provide in-person services lines up with the needs of our clients, it will be easier to pair you with clients and to schedule more hours for you. If you will not be available when we serve clients, we we not be able to find a position for you. Our client's typically look for sessions weekdays between 8AM-6PM, but some also seek services on weekends.

Our clients are located throughout the East bay and are updated frequently. Our current areas of service include, San Pablo, Berkeley, Richmond, Oakland, Hayward and Walnut Creek, to name a few. We work hard to pair our Behavior Technicians with clients close to where they live, but we do need our employees to be able and willing to drive to nearby cities to see out clients. If you do not have full access to a motor vehicle and the appropriate license to drive it, we will not be able to consider you for this position at this time.

This is an in-person position. All of our Behavior Technicians must live within commuting distance of their clients. If you are not located in, or, within a reasonable commute of, our service area, we would be unable to pair you with our clients. We are happy to provide mileage reimbursement to our employees for work based travel from one work location to another work location. When determining what is a reasonable commute for you, please consider that travel from your home to the work site, and to your home from the work site, including tolls, is not reimbursed.

This role involves working with children in their homes and schools and requires a background check.
