QA Engineer

Decile Group is transforming venture capital into a force for good in the world. We are working to launch 1,000 next-generation venture capital firms, changing the face of venture capital. We run VC Lab, the leading venture capital accelerator worldwide, and operate the Decile Hub platform — reducing the barriers of entry for next-generation investors to launch and grow meaningful early-stage investment firms.

We're looking for a Product Manager to join the Decile Group product team and own a meaningful surface area of Decile Hub. Read more about how Decile Group builds here: https://github.com/VCLab-Inc/Engineering

The ideal candidate is technically fluent, deeply curious about users, and relentlessly clear in their communication. You know how to take a messy problem and turn it into a crisp spec. You use AI tools daily — not as a novelty, but as a genuine part of how you research, write, and think. You're comfortable with ambiguity, good at asking the right questions, and allergic to vague requirements.

You don't need to come from a big company. You need to show us that you can ship.

Basic requirements:

You must live and work within a few time zones of Pacific (California) time. We are on Zoom and Slack a lot.

You must be able to write a spec that an engineer can build from without follow-up questions.

You must be actively using AI tools in your daily workflow — research, writing, analysis, synthesis.

You must be willing to get close to customers — calls, tickets, interviews — and turn what you learn into action.

If you want to own real product surface area, work with a sharp team, and build tools that thousands of investors use to run their firms — you belong at Decile Group.

And we want to work with you too.

What You'll Do

• Anticipate issues before release. Study each feature, the customer using it, and the flows around it, and find the problems before they ship. You are measured by what never reaches customers.
• Build an agentic QA system. Set up and maintain AI agents that run regression tests, explore new features, check customer flows, and flag risks automatically. Keep improving them as the tools get better.
• Know the customer. Learn how fund managers, LPs, and our internal teams actually use Decile Hub and Start Fund. Read support tickets, shadow onboarding calls, and turn real customer confusion into test cases.
• Own the onboarding and login flows. Make sure every step a new LP or fund manager takes (invites, login, verification, documents, capital calls) works the first time, every time.
• Run classic QA with discipline. Write test plans, maintain regression suites, track and triage bugs, and run release checks. Keep it all organized so anyone on the team can see what was tested and what is at risk.
• Partner across Decile Group teams. Work closely with engineering, product, and customer success. When something breaks or looks risky, escalate early and clearly.

What You Bring

• 5+ years in QA, test engineering, or a related role on a SaaS product
• Hands-on experience building with AI agents and automation tools
• A track record of catching issues before release, not just logging them after
• Experience with test automation for web applications
• Strong organization: test plans, bug tracking, and release checklists that other people can follow
• Clear written communication. Your bug reports tell an engineer exactly what happened and how to reproduce it
• Customer empathy. You can put yourself in the shoes of a first-time user and see where they will get lost

Nice to Have

• Experience with venture capital, fund administration, or financial compliance workflows
• Experience with Ruby on Rails applications
• Experience testing onboarding, identity verification, or payment flows

How to Apply:

If you don't tick every box above, we'd still encourage you to apply. We're building a diverse team whose skills balance and complement one another.

Please describe why you are uniquely qualified for this position in the competitive field of Venture Capital, including an example of an issue you anticipated and caught before it reached customers, as well as submitting your resume.

Salary and benefits are commensurate with experience.
