Job description

FronteraCare delivers life-changing autism services to children and families across New Mexico and Colorado. We provide high quality diagnostic evaluations and ABA therapy, partnering closely with parents, grandparents, foster parents, and other caregivers to create individualized care plans rooted in each child’s unique strengths, needs, and family context.

Our clinicians are committed to evidence-based, compassionate care that helps children with autism thrive. We believe the best outcomes are when families are at the heart of the treatment. By combining clinical expertise with family insights, we help children build skills, gain confidence, and thrive.

Our Mission

Our mission is to expand access to exceptional diagnostic and behavioral healthcare for every child, no matter where they live or their circumstances.

About the Role:

At FronteraCare, we’re not just providing ABA therapy, we’re transforming how behavioral health is delivered. Born from firsthand experience with the delays and inefficiencies in today’s diagnostic and therapeutic systems, FronteraCare was created to bridge the gap between families and the care they need. We do this by combining compassionate, culturally informed clinical care with innovative technology that supports rather than replaces clinicians, making care more precise, accessible, and sustainable.

We’re seeking a mission-driven, technology-forward Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) to join our team in Albuquerque, New Mexico, as we expand our presence in the region. This is a hybrid role based locally in Albuquerque, combining in-person and telehealth care as our pipeline in this market grows. In the meantime, you’ll also support clients in Espanola and Santa Fe, with travel to those regions required at least biweekly.

This is more than a clinical role, it’s a leadership opportunity. As a BCBA at Frontera, you’ll be at the forefront of an innovative care model that leverages digital phenotyping, intelligent assessment tools, and asynchronous supervision technology to expand access and improve outcomes. You’ll lead and mentor RBTs with intention, ensuring high-quality implementation and meaningful professional development, while helping build our footprint in the Albuquerque market from the ground up.

If you believe in the power of technology to transform care without compromising clinical integrity, and if you’re passionate about guiding and growing the next generation of behavior technicians, we want to hear from you.

The BCBA will operate within Local, State and Federal Regulations as well as adhere to all Frontera policies and procedures. Essential duties include but are not limited to:

• Conducting behavior or functional Analytic Assessment Process

• Developing and implementing an ABA Treatment Plan
• Consulting with a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) or Behavior Technician (BT) regarding client/family concerns
• Selecting appropriate stimulus materials and treatment modalities for age and ability of person served
• Including the client/family in setting treatment goals and training families on specific treatment strategies and carryover skills for the client/family
• Giving clear concise instructions in presenting materials and/or techniques in therapy
• Recording and tracking daily progress for client/family accurately
• Utilizing time in session efficiently to meet objectives
• Providing accurate and immediate feedback to the client and/or family
• Planning for discharge of the person served
• Traveling to Espanola and Santa Fe at least biweekly to support clients in those regions

General Requirements:

• General knowledge and experience in the field of Applied Behavior Analysis
• Services and/or knowledge of Autism Spectrum Disorder
• Managerial experience
• Proficient computer skills in Excel, database management and record keeping
• Effective oral and written communication
• Excellent interpersonal and coaching skills
• Evidence of the practice of a high level of confidentiality
• Excellent organizational skills
• Completing stage two assessments
• Reliable transportation and willingness to travel regularly within New Mexico
• Completing other duties as assigned

Education and Experience:

• BCBA (Board Certified Behavior Analyst) certification for at least 3 years
• Master’s Degree in Psychology or related field, emphasis in Applied Behavior Analysis
• Four or more years of experience working with a pediatric population
• Four or more years of experience in an applied setting participating in functional assessments/analyses, the development and implementation of functional behavior plans as well as the ongoing oversight and monitoring of the implementation and adjustments to such programs
• Memberships to specific state and national (ABAI) professional associations are highly recommended
• 1+ year of Telehealth supervision experience preferred
• Must be local to and able to work on site in Albuquerque, NM, with regular travel to Espanola and Santa Fe
