Cloud & Infrastructure Team Full-Time Mid-Level (7 -12 years)

About the Role

We're looking for a FinOps & Cloud Architecture Engineer who can bridge the gap between engineering and finance. You'll design and maintain scalable, secure cloud infrastructure while owning the cost side of the equation - tracking spend, identifying waste, and building the tagging, budgeting, and forecasting practices that keep cloud costs predictable as we scale. This is a hybrid role for someone who's as comfortable in a cost-allocation spreadsheet as they are in a Cloud knowledge.

Responsibilities

  • ● Maintain cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, and/or GCP) that is secure, scalable, and cost-efficient.
  • ● Build and manage Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, or similar).
  • ● Evaluate architecture decisions (compute, storage, networking) for both technical fit and cost impact.
  • ● Support migrations, right-sizing initiatives, and adoption of managed/serverless services where they reduce cost or operational overhead.
  • ● Knowledge of Github
  • ● Own cloud cost visibility: build dashboards and reports for spend, forecasts, and budget variance across teams.
  • ● Implement and enforce tagging, showback/chargeback, and cost-allocation standards across cloud accounts.
  • ● Identify and drive cost-optimization opportunities - reserved instances/savings plans, spot usage, rightsizing, storage tiering, idle resource cleanup.
  • ● Partner with business and Finance leadership on budgeting, forecasting, and unit economics for cloud spend.
  • ● Track and report on FinOps KPIs (e.g., cost per unit, waste %, savings realized) and present findings to stakeholders.
  • ● Evaluate and manage cloud cost-management tooling (e.g., native cost tools, Flexera etc)
  • ● 6-10 years of experience in cloud engineering, infrastructure, DevOps, or a related role, with meaningful exposure to cost management.
  • ● Hands-on experience with at least one major cloud provider (AWS, Azure, or GCP); working knowledge of a second is a plus.
  • ● Solid understanding of cloud billing models, cost drivers, and optimization levers (reserved capacity, autoscaling, storage classes, etc.).
  • ● Comfortable working with data - building reports/dashboards in tools like Excel, Looker, Tableau, or native cloud cost tools.
  • ● Strong communication skills; able to translate technical cost drivers into terms Finance and business stakeholders understand.

Requirements

  • ● FinOps Certified Practitioner (FOCP) certification or equivalent.
  • ● Cloud architecture certification (AWS Solutions Architect etc)
  • ● Experience with Kubernetes cost management (e.g., Kubecost) and containerized workloads.
  • ● Familiarity with FinOps tooling.
  • ● Scripting ability (Python, Bash, or similar) for automating cost reports or cleanup tasks.
  • ● Cloud spend is fully tagged, allocated, and visible by team/product within the first few months.
  • ● Architecture reviews consistently catch cost and reliability issues before deployment.
  • ● Measurable, sustained reduction in cloud waste through concrete optimization initiatives.
