Job Description

Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) Remote

Location: Arizona

At Cortica, our Board-Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) use a strength-based, holistic approach to clinical programming for children with autism and other neurodevelopmental differences. Our valued BCBAs are leaders who make a difference and create a supportive environment where all clinicians in our transdisciplinary team can thrive, grow, and make a meaningful, long-term impact for families.

You’ll provide groundbreaking, neurodiversity-affirming care while enjoying the flexibility and support you deserve in a fully remote role!

Why Choose Cortica?

We’re excited to support your continued professional development, growth, well-being, and ability to make a meaningful impact as part of a transdisciplinary team. That's why our compensation and benefits package has been designed to support you personally and professionally:

Earning Potential (Salary + Productivity Bonus): $95,772–$120,545

Plus, earn up to an additional 10% of your monthly salary with our second bonus. That's right, TWO bonuses to increase your earning potential!

$7,500 Sign-On Bonus!

Generous Time Off to Recharge and Maintain Work-Life Balance: Up to 22 days off in your first year, increasing to 26 days after 12 months.

Fully Remote Flexibility: Work remotely from anywhere in Arizona, with travel to local Cortica clinics required up to 2 times per month. Cortica will cover eligible travel expenses for required clinic visits.

  • CEU Stipend: $2,000 annually to support your continued professional development.
  • License Reimbursement: We cover the cost of your BCBA license renewal.
  • 401(k) Matching: Helping you plan for your future with matching contributions.
  • Comprehensive Health Coverage: Including medical, dental, vision, life, and disability insurance, plus pet insurance, because we care about your entire family, furry friends included!
  • Set Scheduling: Predictable work hours help you balance your work and personal life.

Your Role and Impact

As a BCBA at Cortica, you’ll play a pivotal role in overseeing neurodiversity-affirming clinical programming for patients receiving ABA treatment. You'll lead a team of behavior technicians (BTs), empowering them to make a lasting difference in the lives of children with developmental differences.

What You’ll Love About This Role

Achievable Targets: You’ll average 26 billable hours per week, with reduced targets during shorter weeks to ensure a manageable workload.

Industry-Leading Dual Bonus Program: Enjoy two separate bonus opportunities that reward your impact and leadership.

Productivity Bonus: Increase your earning potential through flexible productivity incentives designed to reward additional billable hours while maintaining work-life balance.

ABA Caseload Bonus: Earn additional monthly bonus opportunities based on ABA direct service hours billed and converted within your POD, with bonus potential up to 10% of your monthly salary.

Growth and Advancement Opportunities: You'll have the chance to advance through BCBA levels I, II, III, and IV, increasing your leadership impact along the way. At BCBA levels III and IV, productivity targets are reduced to 22 hours, allowing you to focus on developing leadership skills, cultivating other talents, and exploring broader professional interests.

Autonomy Over Your Schedule: Enjoy the flexibility to determine when and where you supervise your cases, with telehealth used when clinically effective for the client and BT. While this is a fully remote position, occasional travel to local Cortica clinics is required, up to twice per month.

Administrative Support: Focus on what you do best, clinical care, while our dedicated team handles scheduling, billing, and credentialing, leaving you with more time to focus on your work and patients.

Qualifications and Requirements

  • Master’s degree in human services or a related field.
  • Current BCBA (Board-Certified Behavior Analyst) certification required.
  • Must reside in Arizona and be able to travel to local Cortica clinics up to twice per month.
  • Reliable transportation for required local clinic visits.
  • What Makes Cortica Different from Other ABA Companies?

At Cortica, we believe in going beyond traditional ABA practices to offer a more comprehensive, patient-centered approach that is different from other ABA companies:

A Transdisciplinary Approach to Care: Unlike many ABA companies that focus solely on behavior therapy, Cortica offers a holistic, multidisciplinary model of care. Our team includes experts from a wide range of fields, including occupational therapy, speech pathology, pediatrics, and more, allowing us to address the whole child and deliver more integrated, effective care.

Focus on Collaboration: At Cortica, we don’t just implement therapy. We collaborate with families, caregivers, and other clinicians to create individualized care plans that empower everyone involved. This approach ensures that each child’s unique needs are met and that the entire team is aligned in their goals for success.

Quality Over Quantity: We take pride in our value-based care partnerships with health plans that prioritize quality over quantity. Our patients benefit from the time we dedicate to collaborative, integrated care, and our clinicians are supported with more time for thoughtful clinical decision-making. Unlike other providers, we are reimbursed based on outcomes, not just the number of sessions delivered.

By joining Cortica, you’ll be part of a team that’s redefining ABA therapy, combining compassion, innovation, and collaboration to deliver results that matter.
