Job description

Your Future as a BCBA Starts Here - And It’s Looking Bright!

Join a clinician-led organization where every clinical leader between you and our CEO is a BCBA. At Autism Learning Partners (ALP), you’ll get the flexibility, support, and clinical autonomy to focus on what matters most - your clients and families.

Why BCBAs Choose ALP

• Hybrid Flexibility: Up to 50% telehealth for your in-home cases, plus no required Saturday work.
• Manageable Caseloads: Clear billable expectations - typically 25–30 hrs/week, confirmed for your region before you accept. No guessing games.

As a Behavior Analyst (BCBA), you’ll lead clinical care for your caseload - designing individualized treatment plans, supervising Behavior Technicians and Program Managers, and partnering directly with families to drive real progress. Clinical decisions are guided by what’s best for the client, not red tape. This role is designed for professionals who have earned their Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) certification through the Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB).

• Manageable Caseloads: Every caseload is built using our Caseload Summary Tool - balancing therapy hours, supervision needs, and time-of-day scheduling before it ever lands on your plate.
• 60+ Hours of Onboarding + Ongoing Clinical Support: Comprehensive training in your first 4 weeks (clinical best practices, Central Reach, goal writing, CPT codes, telehealth assessments), plus monthly CEUs, an annual in-house research conference, and weekly office hours with our Clinical Development team.
• Benefits Highlights: 23 days off annually (15 PTO days, accruing from Day 1, plus holidays including 1 floating holiday), generous health insurance, 401(k) with employer match, and employer-paid short-term disability.
• No Contracts, No Non-Competes: Your employment is fully at-will - we don’t require contracts because we value flexibility and trust. Grow with us on your own terms.

Our BCBA-certified employees average 4.8 years of tenure, 66 have advanced into a BCBA or higher role since January, and 1 in 7 have been here 10+ years.
• Support Center Behind You: Client intake, recruiting, payroll, HR, billing, credentialing/contracting, and scheduling are handled for you - so you can stay focused on clinical work.
• A clear path to make values-based clinical decisions based entirely on what’s best for your client and family.
