ABA Behavior Therapist -Putnam Valley, NY

About the role

JOB BOARD TITLE: RBT Wanted: Must Excel at High-Fives, Counting to Ten, and Embracing the Unexpected

Are you tired of interacting with adults who pretend to be normal? Do you prefer people who express their big feelings authentically or repeat their favorite words 47 times? Excellent. We are hiring a Behavior Technician to join our team of professionally patient, out-of-the-box thinkers.

The Logistics

• Target Age Group: A 4-year-old male who is verbal and highly communicative, but needs strong support navigating some moderate-to-severe behavioral challenges.
• The Coordinates: Direct, in-person sessions right in the client's Home located in Putnam Valley, New York (Zip Code: 10579).
• Required Dialect: Must be fluent in English, as well as understanding the tactical genius of a clever 4-year-old.

About the Job (The Actual Reality)

You will be implementing Behavior Intervention Plans. Translating from corporate-speak: you will be helping cool humans learn how to navigate a world that makes no sense.

• You will track data. Yes, you will literally count behaviors to help us find the best ways to support him.
• You will reinforce positive behaviors. This means you will become a hype-man for everyday victories like sharing, transitions, and communication.
• You will get high-fives. Sometimes you will get a bit of chaos. It is a package deal.
• The Schedule: You'll be clocking 25 hours per week during after-school hours.

Are You the Chosen One?

We do not care if you are a traditional corporate robot. In fact, if you are, you will hate it here. We want someone who:

• Possesses the patience of a saint who has been highly caffeinated.
• Keeps a calm, cool head when a session gets intense.
• Has a background in psychology, education, or just a lifetime of being the exceptionally understanding friend.

The Compensation (The Crazy Money Part)

We pay a competitive hourly rate. But honestly? The true financial perk is our Quantum Bonus Structure. If you successfully teach a child to request chicken nuggets using their words instead of screaming at a wall, we will legally petition the federal government to mint a custom coin with your face on it. Furthermore, if you survive a full Friday afternoon without questioning your life choices, we will deposit one million theoretical space dollars into an imaginary bank account in your name. (Note: Space dollars are currently non-convertible to USD, but they look great on a resume).
