About Tessera Labs
Tessera Labs is redefining how enterprises adopt and operationalize Artificial Intelligence. Backed by Foundation Capital and led by a world-class founding team, we build multi-agent AI systems that automate complex business workflows across platforms like SAP, Salesforce, Workday, Snowflake, MuleSoft, and more.
Our mission is simple but ambitious: bring real AI automation to the enterprise — with speed, precision, and measurable impact. We move fast, operate with extreme ownership, and build at the frontier of applied AI.
About the Team
The Cloud Infrastructure team builds and operates the foundational infrastructure that lets Tessera run reliably, securely, and consistently across customer environments. This includes a portable cloud infrastructure that makes each environment production-ready: container orchestration (Kubernetes), networking, and automation that ensures our product behaves the same regardless of the underlying cloud provider.
This is a high-impact role because it directly enables our ability to onboard and operate enterprise customer environments under strict security and compliance constraints while preserving developer velocity. The work reduces integration risk, standardizes operational practices across hyperscalers, and ensures product teams can ship safely without infrastructure becoming a bottleneck.
The Role

You’ll work on everything from Kubernetes and Terraform to observability, security, and reliability — with real ownership over architectural decisions.
