Overview

Compensation $81,000.00 - $103,500.00/year

At Soar Autism Center, you’ll join a team that’s deeply committed to delivering exceptional, ethical care for young children. We practice play-based, trauma-informed ABA aligned with the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM), inside an integrated care center where collaboration with SLPs, OTs, psychologists, and medical providers is part of daily practice. If you are seeking a true clinical home where quality comes first and support is real, you have found your team.

Compensation and role design

• Base pay: $81,000.00 - $103,500.00/year. Annual performance bonus potential up to $3,800. Additional compensation beyond the range for achieving clinical certifications.
• Bonus: Up to $8,000 sign on bonus, based on start date and location.
• Caseload: 7-8 children per BCBA, designed for depth and quality of care.
• Hybrid: 1 work-from-home day per week for each BCBA, with some opportunity for 2 work-from-home days, depending on center maturity, clinical needs, and team coordination.
• Support and training: Deep onboarding and ongoing training in our ESDM-based care model, with close clinical leadership support.
• Clinical growth: Multiple paths to grow as a clinician including center/regional leadership and specialized roles.
• Culture that lives out our Values: High Expectations that raise the bar, Collaboration that brings us together as one team, and Fun you can feel the moment you walk into our centers.

Job responsibilities

• Design and implement individualized, naturalistic ABA for children ages 2-6 in a center-based setting.
• Collaborate with a dynamic interdisciplinary clinical team (SLP, OT, psychology, developmental pediatrics) on assessments and integrated treatment plans.
• Use ESDM-informed strategies (we provide training, ESDM experience not required).
• Conduct standardized assessments, track progress, and adjust plans based on data.
• Partner with families through clear guidance, compassionate communication, and practical support.
• Maintain a manageable caseload focused on depth of care, not volume.

Qualifications

• Master’s degree in Applied Behavior Analysis, Special Education, or a related field.
• Current BCBA certification.
• ABA early intervention experience.
• Preferred: background in Child Development, Early Childhood Education, or a related field.

Additional benefits

• Quality medical ($0 deductible), dental, and vision plans.
• 11 company holidays + 15-20 additional paid days off.
• 401(k) with company contribution after 1 year.
• Short-term disability covered by Soar and paid maternity leave available.
• Student loan repayment assistance.
• Training and continuing education, plus support from national experts (including Laurie Vismara and other experts on our Clinical Advisory Board).
• Weekly interdisciplinary collaboration and care meetings.
• Opportunity for an enhanced hybrid schedule in some centers (up to 2 telehealth days/week based on clinical needs and team coordination).

We are on a mission to transform autism care by putting children, families, and clinical quality first. If you want to practice high-quality ABA in a place that takes clinical standards seriously, we’d love to meet you. Will you join us?
