Job description

About QLI Impact

At QLI, we build technology that turns everyday kindness into practical action. Our core product, Wishing Well, lets individuals share genuine wishes or needs while our community—supported by AI—responds with real-world help. Through earlier initiatives like Play for Good, we’ve already engaged ~200 participants and raised nearly HK$90,000 for impactful causes.

We are looking for a high-initiative, curious Founder’s Associate to work directly alongside our Founder, Ken, to drive product growth, test engagement initiatives, and scale our community.

What You’ll Do

You’ll take direct ownership of turning early-stage ideas into execution:

  • Optimize User Flows: Refine and improve the end-to-end user journey across sign-ups, wish posting, offer matching, and repeat platform usage.
  • Drive Engagement & Growth: Formulate and launch features and community programs designed to encourage daily user retention.
  • Gather User Insights: Speak with users regularly, translate feedback into actionable product tweaks, and test acquisition channels.
  • Founder Support: Take key operational and strategic tasks off the Founder's plate, managing projects from concept to completion.
Who We’re Looking For

We prioritize character, passion, and learning speed over years of formal experience. Early-career professionals, recent graduates, and career-switchers are welcome (coding skills are not required).

  • Mission-Driven: Deeply passionate about using technology and AI to make people’s lives kinder.
  • Fast Learner & Doer: Highly proactive, quick to pick up new tools, and consistent with follow-through.
  • Adaptable: Comfortable experimenting, receiving feedback, and navigating early-stage startup ambiguity.
  • Curious: Keen interest in consumer apps, behavioral psychology, community dynamics, and modern AI tools.
What You’ll Gain
  • Direct mentorship from a startup founder.
  • End-to-end exposure across product development, growth marketing, community building, and AI integration.
  • Real ownership over a product designed to generate measurable social impact.

Location: Hong Kong

Commitment: Three days per week, at least two in person with Founder Ken
