BCBA Clinician Pediatric Autism Therapy Center

Multiple Openings | Full-Time and Part-Time Phoenix, AZ | Center-Based | 1099 or W-2 by role Smart Start Autism Therapy Center (SSATC) is a new pediatric therapy program launching inside an established and thriving early childhood school in Phoenix. We are building a high-quality, ethical ABA program focused on early intervention, close collaboration with families, and thoughtful clinical work, and we are building it to last. We are hiring multiple BCBAs, full-time and part-time, to help us launch and grow. These roles suit clinicians who value clinical autonomy, prefer a predictable center-based environment, and want to work closely with young children and families in a school-based setting. Therapy is delivered in dedicated spaces within the school and integrated thoughtfully into the child's day when appropriate. This is an early-stage practice with a multi-site plan. The BCBAs who join now will help set the clinical standards, culture, and systems the rest of the organization is built on. For clinicians who want to grow into senior and clinical leadership as we open additional centers, there is real room to do that here.
