BCBA Assessor | Floater

• BCBA – Initial Assessor / Floater
• Charlotte, NC Metro Area | Full-Time | Field-Based
• $90,000–$100,000/year, based on experience

Love being a BCBA—but ready for something a little different?

If you enjoy meeting new families, digging into assessments, building thoughtful treatment recommendations, and having variety in your workday, this may be the BCBA role you’ve been looking for.

Autism 360 is looking for an experienced, compassionate Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) to join our Charlotte Metro area team as an Initial Assessor / Floater BCBA.

Instead of managing the same traditional caseload every day, you’ll play an important role at the very beginning of a family’s journey with Autism 360—conducting initial assessments, developing individualized treatment plans, and helping families understand what comes next. You’ll also step in to provide clinical support across our Charlotte-area centers when teams need additional BCBA coverage.

Think: assessment expert + clinical problem-solver + flexible team player.

Why You’ll Love This Role

This position is a great fit for a BCBA who enjoys variety, autonomy, collaboration, and making an immediate clinical impact.

You’ll Have the Opportunity To

• Meet and support families as they begin ABA services
• Focus heavily on initial assessments and treatment planning
• Complete clinical documentation and develop individualized recommendations
• Collaborate with caregivers, RBTs, BCBAs, and clinical leadership
• Provide short-term clinical support where it’s needed most
• Work across Autism 360 centers throughout the greater Charlotte area
• Use your clinical judgment without every day looking exactly the same

If you’re adaptable, organized, clinically strong, and can build rapport quickly, you could thrive in this role.

Compensation & Benefits

• Salary: $90,000–$100,000 per year, based on experience
• At Autism 360, we want our clinicians to feel supported both professionally and personally. Our benefits include:
• Paid Parental Leave
• Paid Time Off
• Health & wellness benefits
• Professional development and continuing education opportunities
• Collaborative clinical leadership and team support
• Opportunities for professional growth
• Meaningful work with children and families
• What You’ll Do
• Initial Assessments & Treatment Planning
• You’ll help set the foundation for high-quality care by:
• Conducting comprehensive initial ABA assessments for children and adolescents

Completing direct observations, caregiver interviews, record reviews, skills assessments, functional behavior assessments, and standardized assessments as appropriate

Identifying each learner’s strengths and areas of need across communication, adaptive, social, behavioral, and developmental domains

Developing individualized treatment plans, measurable goals, behavior support plans, and clinical recommendations

Preparing accurate, timely assessment reports and documentation for payer authorization

Meeting with caregivers to explain findings, recommendations, goals, and next steps in a way that feels clear and supportive

Partnering with intake, operations, scheduling, and clinical teams to help families transition smoothly into services

Clinical Floater Support

• When our teams need additional clinical support, you’ll jump in to help maintain continuity of care by:
• Providing short-term BCBA coverage during vacancies, leaves, caseload changes, or other clinical needs
• Reviewing existing programs and client progress
• Conducting observations, supervision, overlaps, caregiver training, and treatment-plan reviews
• Supporting RBTs and behavior technicians through modeling, coaching, feedback, and clinical guidance
• Updating programming when clinically appropriate
• Collaborating with center and clinical leadership to address immediate client and team needs

Flexibility is important in this position. Assignments may change based on assessment schedules and clinical needs.

• Local Travel Is an Important Part of This Role
• This is not a fully remote BCBA position.
• Candidates must have reliable transportation and be willing and able to travel to Autism 360 centers throughout the greater Charlotte area for in-person assessments and clinical coverage.
• Depending on client needs, services may also occur in home, school, or community-based settings.
• What We’re Looking For

You’ll Need

Current Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) certification in good standing

Master’s degree or higher in Applied Behavior Analysis, Psychology, Education, Special Education, Behavior Analysis, or a related field

Eligibility to practice behavior analysis in North Carolina, including applicable state licensure or credentialing requirements

Experience Working with Autistic Children and Adolescents

• Strong knowledge of ABA principles, functional assessment, treatment planning, skill-acquisition programming, and caregiver training
• Excellent clinical writing and documentation skills
• Confidence communicating with families, RBTs, clinicians, and operational partners
• Strong organization and time-management skills
• The ability to shift priorities and comfortably support different clients, teams, and locations

A Valid Driver’s License and Reliable Transportation

Bonus points if you have experience with: initial assessments, standardized assessment tools, payer authorizations, multiple service settings, mentoring RBTs, or providing temporary clinical coverage.

Who Will Thrive Here?

• You may be a great fit if you’re the BCBA who:
• Loves assessments and figuring out the clinical “why”
• Can walk into a new environment and quickly build trust
