BCBA Clinical Lead – Wisconsin Medicaid (Wauwatosa, WI)

Help build the clinical foundation for a first-of-its-kind program. Kinuu is bringing BrainyAct, our gamification-based neurolearning platform for people ages 6 to 30 with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and related neurodevelopmental conditions, under Wisconsin Medicaid coverage, and we need a BCBA to anchor the clinical side.

This is a founding, high-ownership role, not a traditional clinic caseload. You will be the Behavioral Treatment Licensed Supervisor of record for our Wisconsin Medicaid work, making our services billable, defensible, and audit-ready while turning a digital therapeutic into sound clinical practice. You will have direct input into the protocols, supervision workflows, and clinical standards, with a path to expanded clinical leadership as the program grows.

What you will own

Clinical leadership and supervision

Serve as the licensed supervisor of record. Enroll with Wisconsin Medicaid (ForwardHealth) as the supervising and rendering provider so BrainyAct can bill Behavioral Treatment Benefit services.

Supervise the treatment team. Direct and clinically supervise behavioral treatment technicians and RBTs, ensuring competent, ethical, data-driven programming that meets BACB supervision standards.

Own the clinical work. Conduct behavioral assessments, write and revise individualized treatment and behavior plans, and interpret progress-monitoring data.

Meet Wisconsin supervision standards. Directly observe each member in person for at least one hour every 60 to 75 days, counted from the member's first date of service, and provide at least one hour of face-to-face case supervision, with the member present, for every 10 hours of direct treatment delivered by technicians.

Program build

Translate the platform into clinical protocols. Turn BrainyAct and the Pyramid of Development framework into assessment batteries, treatment protocols, and progress monitoring aligned to payor expectations.

Design compliant remote workflows. Help build telehealth and supervision workflows that still satisfy Wisconsin's in-person observation requirement, which cannot be met remotely.

Uphold honest evidence. Support accurate outcomes reporting and efficacy work with academic partners, and hold the line on data integrity in every external claim.

Wisconsin Medicaid and compliance

Drive authorizations. Prepare prior authorization requests and medical-necessity documentation for the Behavioral Treatment Benefit.

Keep us audit-ready. Maintain supervision logs, session notes, treatment plans, and claims consistent with ForwardHealth Behavioral Treatment Benefit policy and the BACB Ethics Code.

Support enrollment and credentialing. Partner with Clinical Operations on ForwardHealth FFS and Family Care MCO requirements as we expand coverage.

Required Qualifications

Current BCBA certification in good standing with the BACB, with no disciplinary sanctions.

Wisconsin Behavior Analyst license active through DSPS, or current BCBA certification with the ability to obtain Wisconsin licensure promptly through reciprocity (LicensE portal; no additional state exam required). Already certified in another state? We cover the reciprocity costs.

Eligible to enroll with ForwardHealth, with no OIG or state Medicaid exclusions.

Able to meet the in-person observation requirement.

Master's degree in applied behavior analysis, psychology, education, or a related field, with BACB-verified coursework and supervised fieldwork.

Preferred Qualifications

Wisconsin Behavioral Treatment Benefit experience, including prior authorization and supervising technicians or RBTs.

Digital health or telehealth experience.

Familiarity beyond autism, including ADHD, dyslexia, and broader neurodevelopmental populations.

Comfort building clinical infrastructure in an early-stage company rather than inheriting it.
