Job description

Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) - Hawaii - Statewide - Fast Track Placement

Step Ahead ABA provides in-home, school, and community ABA therapy for children and teens on the autism spectrum, across Hawaii, Indiana, Iowa, Nebraska, North Carolina, Oklahoma, and Virginia.

Step In. Step Up. Step Ahead.

Our clinicians are more than professionals; they are advocates for the people they work with. Our staffing model lets you build a caseload around your own availability, and our RBT leveling system and BCBA supervision pathway make advancement explicit rather than aspirational.

Our core values: Compassion. Partnership. Accessibility. Evidence-Based Practice. Integrity. Growth.

Step Ahead ABA is an equal opportunity employer. We recruit, develop, and retain talent from all backgrounds.

Job Description

This posting is how you join Step Ahead ABA's Fast Track Placement pool for Hawaii. It is not one client case and it is not tied to one city — it covers the whole state, and it stays open all year.

PAY IN HAWAII

• $30/hour billable
• $16/hour for non-billable time, which is training and required meetings — a small share of the week

You know both numbers before you accept a case, and the RBT Leveling System raises your rate at every level.

WHAT FAST TRACK PLACEMENT GETS YOU

Cases do not go public first. When a family is ready for an RBT, our placement team works Fast Track Placement before the case is posted to a job board. Being in the pool means:

• You hear about a case days before it is advertised anywhere
• You get first refusal on cases that match your area and your availability
• You are matched on the schedule you already told us you can work
• When several people could take a case, pool members are contacted first

New cases open every week.

HOW IT WORKS

You apply once and tell us two things: your ZIP code and when you can work. When a case opens that fits both, our placement team contacts you directly. You are never applying blind to a posting that has already been filled — we come to you.

Our current RBTs get first look at every new case. Fast Track Placement is next, ahead of public postings.

WHAT THIS ROLE REQUIRES

• Active RBT certification with the BACB. Not certified yet? See our Behavior Technician posting — we provide the 40-hour training at no cost.
• Reliable transportation
• High school diploma or equivalent
• Able to stay active and engaged in session

WHAT YOU GET

• The RBT Leveling System: pay increases at every level, gift card rewards, priority for client placement, floating holidays
• Cancellation protection as you level up
• You pick your clients and set your own hours
• A BCBA assigned to every case before you start, with the treatment plan and a handoff
• Capella University partnership: discounted tuition, plus BCBA supervision and a pathway
• Benefits at 40 hours a week
