Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) Hybrid

Education Requirements: Master's degree or higher in ABA, Psychology, Education or related field with approved behavior-analytic coursework 

Tired of giving the freeway your first and best hours? This role is built with the Bay Area in mind. Expect one work-from-home day weekly plus genuine flexibility on when your day starts and ends, so the commute serves you instead of running your schedule.

Most BCBA roles ask you to balance caseload size, clinical quality, and paperwork — and something usually gives. At Trumpet Behavioral Health, a member of the BlueSprig family of companies, this role is built differently. You'll lead ABA therapy for a defined group of clients, designing individualized treatment plans, running functional behavior assessments, and guiding the technicians who deliver direct services day to day. Parents and caregivers see real change because the programming actually matches their child, and because you have the time, tools, and team to support it.

• →Develop and lead personalized treatment plans built around each client's individual needs — never generic templates.
