Why join Tessera Labs?

ERP migrations still take years, and every large company on SAP or Oracle has a stake in that changing. If Tessera Labs, a San Jose AI platform for ERP transformation, shrinks those projects from years to weeks, it could become the default way enterprises modernize their core systems. Its $60M Series A from Andreessen Horowitz and Foundation Capital beats 81% of same-stage rounds, and 14 of 22 open roles are engineering.

JustBacked's take, based on Tessera Labs's own site and its funding and hiring data.
