Build a Career Where Your Work Actually Matters
At Family Applied Behavioral Services (FABS), our Behavior Technicians work directly with children and families to build communication, independence, social, and everyday life skills through Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA).
We believe great outcomes start with great people. That means strong BCBA supervision, hands-on training, opportunities to grow, and a workplace where employees are treated like part of the team—not just another person on the schedule.
Already a CBT or RBT? We'd love to meet you.
Interested in ABA but not certified yet? We still want to hear from you. We provide training and can help qualified candidates work toward becoming a Washington State Certified Behavior Technician (CBT) and/or Registered Behavior Technician (RBT).
What You'll Do
As a Behavior Technician, you'll provide 1:1 ABA therapy under the supervision of a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA). You'll:
Teach communication, social, play, self-help, and daily living skills
Implement individualized treatment programs developed by a BCBA
Collect data and document client progress
Help clients build meaningful independence
Collaborate with BCBAs, technicians, and families
Support clients who may engage in challenging behaviors, including aggression, self-injury, elopement, property destruction, or tantrums
Services may take place in our West Olympia clinic, clients' homes, or community settings based on treatment needs.
What We're Looking For
You don't need years of ABA experience to be a great fit. We're looking for people who are:
Dependable, patient, compassionate, and willing to learn
Comfortable working directly with children and families
Able to receive feedback and work as part of a clinical team
Able to remain calm during challenging situations
At least 18 with a high school diploma or equivalent
Able to pass required background checks
Able to reliably travel to assigned work locations
Experience in ABA, behavioral health, special education, childcare, teaching, developmental disabilities, psychology, education, or related fields is a plus—but not required.
No ABA experience? Don't automatically count yourself out. For the right candidate, reliability, willingness to learn, and the ability to connect with our clients can matter just as much as previous experience.
Pay & Career Growth
Starting pay: $23-$30/hour, based on experience, certification, education, and qualifications.
Growth opportunities include:
CBT/RBT certification
Ongoing BCBA supervision and clinical training
Performance-based raises or bonuses
Student Behavior Analyst (SBA) opportunities
Growth toward BCBA or leadership positions
Benefits
Flexible scheduling
Part-time with opportunities to grow into full-time
32+ hours considered full-time
Paid drive time between clients
Flexible PTO and health insurance for eligible full-time employees
Ongoing professional development and BCBA mentorship
Optional weekend availability
Opportunities for advancement
