Multi-cloud database-as-a-service platform with AI-driven automation
Tessell operates a multi-cloud DBaaS platform spanning AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI with support for PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, and SQL Server. The stack—anchored in Kubernetes, Terraform, and Pulumi for infrastructure automation, plus React/TypeScript for the control plane—reflects a platform designed to abstract cloud-specific provisioning complexity. Hiring velocity is accelerating with 14 of 22 open roles in engineering (heavily weighted toward senior and staff levels), signaling both product expansion and scaling challenges around developer experience and infrastructure reliability.
