Job Description

At Tessera Labs, we’re revolutionizing business process automation with cutting-edge AI technology. Backed by Foundation Capital and led by a world-class founding team, we’re building a high-impact engineering group to bring AI-powered automation to the enterprise world. Our multi-agent AI systems transform complex business workflows—eliminating inefficiencies, optimizing operations, and enabling seamless integrations across platforms like SAP, Salesforce, and Workday. We move fast, solve hard problems, and build at the bleeding edge of AI. We’re looking for a Backend Engineer (Mid-Level) who thrives in a fast-paced, high-ownership startup environment. You’ll help design, build, and maintain the backend systems that power Tessera’s AI automation platform — including scalable APIs, data pipelines, and integrations with enterprise systems. This role is hands-on and ideal for someone who enjoys building distributed systems, solving challenging backend problems, and contributing to architectural discussions in a collaborative, fast-moving team.
