Strong Junior QA Manual Engineer
If you're looking to work on cutting-edge AI products, solve challenging problems, and be part of a fast-moving, high-talent team, you'll love it here.
Join NineTwoThree AI Studio, a remote-first product design, engineering, and marketing studio, founded in 2012 and based in Boston. We build AI-powered web and mobile apps for big brands and fast-moving startups — from Fortune 500 companies to MIT research labs.
You'll work with really smart people — the kind of teammates who challenge you, push you forward, and make you better. We move fast and focus on getting things done.
We've been growing 20% every year for the last 5 years, which means there's plenty of room for career growth and promotions. We run on clear processes and strong leadership — we move quickly, but we don't do chaos. We do high-quality work, and we do it right.
We focus on products with a positive impact: sports, health, logistics, nuclear, and AI. If you're into gambling, adult entertainment, or crypto — we're not your place.
About This Role
This is not a traditional QA role. Most of our products are powered by AI — meaning the system's output is intentionally non-deterministic. There's no single "right answer" to compare against. Your job is to figure out what "correct" looks like for a given business goal, build your own definition of it, and systematically verify whether the system gets there.
You'll be testing things like: does the AI response correctly synthesize data from multiple sources? Does it apply the right organisational rules? Does it stay within its intended boundaries or leak information it shouldn't?
We'll teach you the tools and techniques. What we can't teach is how you think — and that's what we're hiring for.
What This Role Is Not
We value your time and ours and make the process fast and easy.
Our interview process takes the following steps: interview with the HR, technical interview with the QA Team Lead and QA Manual Engineer, Offer.
We're building out an AI QA function from the ground up. If you grow into this role, you'll be one of the people who defines how AI systems get tested at this company — building ground-truth datasets, designing evaluation rubrics, and eventually leading QA on full AI product lines.

Defined Career Pathways
Each open role is scoped to a single country rather than being open worldwide, so the eligible location is whatever the posting names. There is no published company-wide list of countries you can be hired in, and openings have appeared in both Europe and the Americas, so the role you are applying to is the thing to check.
The company does not publish a required number of overlap hours, so there is no stated block of the day you have to be online with the rest of the team. The constraint is meeting-shaped instead: internal and client meetings sit in western European or Eastern American working hours, and because this is client-services work, some of that timing is set by the client rather than internally. Headquarters is in the Eastern Time Zone and each role is scoped to one country, so how much of your day those windows cover depends on where the role is based. Outside them you choose your own hours.
The careers page lists 20 working days of paid time off per year for the first three years, rising to 25 days after that, plus 5 days of paid sick leave and 10 national holidays of your own choosing.
Yes. NineTwoThree reimburses expenses for professional development courses and certifications, and the careers page describes constant learning through tools and mentorship as part of the job rather than a side benefit.
No. There are no salary bands, ranges, or pay-transparency statements on the careers page, so compensation is something you discuss directly during the hiring process. They do state the engagement model up front: payment runs through Deel for W2 employees, direct contractors and 1099 contracts.
