By providing consistent supervision to our technicians and direct support to our families, you ensure that every intervention is delivered with the precision and empathy that defines the NOVA brand.

Key Responsibilities

1. Clinical Supervision & Mentorship

  • Feedback Loops: Provide real-time, constructive feedback to techs in the field to improve clinical outcomes.

2. Case Management Support

  • Program Updates: Under the direction of the BCBA, update treatment protocols, data collection systems (CentralReach/Catalyst), and teaching materials.
  • Data Analysis: Review session data weekly to identify trends, progress, or barriers to learning; flag concerns for the overseeing BCBA.
  • Materials Creation: Develop sensory-friendly and individualized stimuli, visual schedules, and task analyses for client use.

3. Family & Caregiver Collaboration

  • Caregiver Training: Lead scheduled parent training sessions to ensure skills generalize from the clinic to the home environment.
  • Communication: Serve as a primary point of contact for families regarding daily scheduling, session updates, and progress reporting.

4. Compliance & Ethics

  • State Licensing: Maintain active LABA licensure through the Washington State Department of Health (DOH).
  • Supervision Logs: Maintain meticulous records of all supervision provided to technicians, ensuring compliance with both state law and BACB standards.

  • Licensure: Current Licensed Assistant Behavior Analyst (LABA) license in good standing with the Washington State Department of Health.
  • Certification: Preferred (but not required for LABA) BCaBA certification.
  • Education: Minimum of a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, Education, or a related field, plus completion of the required ABA coursework.
  • Experience: Minimum of 1,000 hours of supervised fieldwork (as required for the LABA license).
  • Skills: Proficiency in behavioral data software and a strong understanding of neurodiversity-affirming practices.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Pay Range: $30.00 – $45.00 per hour (DOE).
  • Growth: Path to BCBA certification with free supervision hours and CEU stipends.
  • Culture: A collaborative, sensory-friendly work environment that values staff well-being as much as client progress.
