Customer Support Specialist

Were passionate about the English language, and we design software that helps writers and editors produce their very best work. Our product, Arsenault, is the leading proofreading software for independent editors, proposal managers, medical writers, and publications teams.

Were a growing, profitable company; and we've been working 100% remote since before it was cool

About The Role

You will be the eyes, ears and voice of the company in its interactions with users, as well as our representative when they most need assistance. Youll ensure that all our customers (regardless of size) experience excellent and timely support in every interaction with the company.

We geek out on the theory and practice that is the essence of great customer support. So well give you the training to become a product expert, capable of fielding questions across both our Windows and Cloud products. And well give you the opportunity to explore what makes customer support so interesting and important.

We get our best innovations from customer feedback, so youll develop great relationships with our user base (while also setting realistic expectations). Youll join our online forum and help build the community of users there. Youll track everything users report to us and feed that back to our engineering team so that we understand customer pain points and can prioritize improvements.

In addition to customer support, youll lead on detailed investigations. Were looking for someone with an inquisitive mind who loves to explore how language software can produce erroneous results.

Our customers write and edit documents professionally. So it helps to have a deep understanding of writing and editing documents. Were looking for someone who has opinions on apostrophes and a stance on the Oxford Comma.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Be the first point of contact for customers and ensure we provide quality customer support across all accounts
• Write FAQs and other support materials
• Represent us in user forums, build strong relationships with customers and engage with their feedback
  
  

You will report directly to the Customer Support Manager, so you must be self-motivating and able to get things done independently.
