Points North is creating a new role to support and safeguard three of our products: ACA Reporter, Who's Where, and Attendance Advisor. As our Software Quality & Support Specialist, you'll split your time between helping customers get unstuck and testing what we build before it reaches them. You'll troubleshoot issues, turn what customers tell you into clear input for our product team, and validate new features and fixes for each release to ensure everything is functioning as intended. It's a great fit for someone who enjoys solving problems for people, likes digging into why something broke, and can move easily between a customer conversation and a test plan.

• Document customer interactions, troubleshooting performed, root causes, and resolutions in the support ticketing system.
• Prioritize and escalate defects, data concerns, and complex technical issues based on business impact, urgency, and established service expectations.
• Identify recurring questions and trends, then recommend improvements to product functionality, user guidance, training, or internal processes.
• Create and maintain customer-facing and internal knowledge resources, including FAQs, troubleshooting guides, and standard support procedures.
• Partner with Customer Success, Product, Engineering, and other teams to provide a consistent and effective customer experience.

Functional Quality Assurance

• Review requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria, and reported issues to develop effective test scenarios and test cases.
• Perform functional, regression, integration, exploratory, and user acceptance testing across supported product lines.
• Validate new features, enhancements, bug fixes, and configuration changes in appropriate test environments before release.
• Document defects with clear reproduction steps, expected and actual results, severity, supporting evidence, and relevant environment details.
• Retest resolved defects and verify that changes do not create unintended impacts in related workflows or products.
• Maintain test cases, regression suites, test data, and release validation documentation.
• Participate in release readiness activities and communicate testing progress, risks, defects, and recommendations to stakeholders.
• Advocate for customer usability, accessibility, data integrity, and product quality throughout the development lifecycle.

Cross-Functional Collaboration & Continuous Improvement

• Translate customer feedback and support trends into actionable input for product planning and quality improvements.
• Participate in product demonstrations, release reviews, team meetings, and process improvement initiatives.
• Balance daily support demand with planned testing commitments, communicating conflicts and risks early.
• Follow established security, privacy, documentation, and change-management practices when handling customer and test data.
• Develop strong working knowledge of product capabilities, customer use cases, integrations, and applicable business processes.
