About Script Assist

Script Assist is a UK healthcare technology company.

When something goes wrong, the customer's description of the problem may only be the starting point.

Our Technical Support Engineers need to enjoy asking:

  • Can I reproduce it?
  • What happened immediately before the issue?
  • What does the data show?
  • Is the configuration correct?
  • Is this expected application behaviour?
  • Is the user's workflow correct?
  • Is another system involved?
  • Does the problem affect everyone or one customer?

  • How can I verify the fix?

  • Triage technical support and application-support tickets

  • Use SQL where appropriate

  • Work with developers and QA engineers
  • Validate software fixes
  • Retest issues before closure
  • Maintain accurate incident and ticket histories
  • Communicate technical information clearly to customers
