About The Position

Florida Autism Center, part of BlueSprig Pediatrics, is hiring compassionate, motivated individuals to provide Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy to children with autism in center-based and/or home-based settings. No ABA experience is required; the company provides paid training, company-paid RBT certification, hands-on mentorship, and ongoing support. This is a full-time position with immediate openings pending onboarding and a successful background check. Hours vary according to client needs and scheduling and are not guaranteed. Centralized scheduling helps maximize hours and provide consistency through multiple client opportunities.

Employees hired with an active RBT certification receive a $200 bonus on their first paycheck. Paid drive time at the state minimum wage applies to applicable in-home sessions. The role involves helping children develop communication, social, behavioral, and daily living skills; working individually or in small groups; collecting data and documenting progress; communicating with families, supervisors, and team members; and following company policies, confidentiality requirements, and mandated reporting standards. BlueSprig offers career advancement through RBT Levels 1–4 and Lead RBT, with pay increases at each level, as well as daily BCBA support, mentorship, and professional development.
