Job Description

Do you live in or near the Bentonville, AR area? Do you love solving problems and have a passion for helping others? Are you looking for a fast-paced environment where you have the freedom to challenge the status quo and the opportunity to exceed expectations daily? Then our Customer Support Representative I may be the position for you. This position requires fast learning, sleuth-like skills at times, and an unflappable positive attitude.

Let us introduce ourselves...

We’re a team of driven, conscientious individuals with a clear mission: to make accounting and payroll fast, simple, and affordable for millions of American businesses and their accountants. 

It’s not enough to have a “good job”. It takes connection, culture, encouragement, growth opportunities, challenges, communication, and so much more to create an environment where people and ideas flourish. 

We are Patriot Software; a fully remote company with 175+ employees across the United States and a co-working space in Canton, Ohio. 

Our search for a new team member always starts by seeking a quality individual who desires to live by our core values:

1. Be Customer Obsessed
2. Lead With Speed
3. Don’t Cut Corners
4. Create a Better Us
5. Follow The Golden Rule

• Able to work in a fast-paced environment—because change is our only constant!
• Self-motivated but able to work with team members when needed.
