We are looking for a FinOps Engineer to drive cost optimization and cloud governance across AWS and GCP, working hands-on with Engineering, Finance, and Product to ship savings and build tooling that increases cost efficiency.

What you'll do

• Find and ship savings across AWS and GCP by analyzing billing, usage, and cost trends to identify opportunities and implement fixes.
• Build and maintain cost attribution through tagging policies and cost allocation so engineering teams can own their spend.
• Automate cost governance with reporting, anomaly detection, and alerting, writing scripts and infrastructure as code to enforce policy.
• Partner with engineering on architecture decisions to bring cost into design discussions early.
• Work with Finance on forecasting and reporting, building dashboards that both engineering and finance can read.

What they're looking for

• Strong AWS expertise and working knowledge of GCP pricing, billing structures, and cost optimization mechanics.
• Automation and scripting skills with Python, Terraform or Pulumi, Lambda, or Bash.
• Experience with cost and billing tooling such as AWS Cost Explorer, Cost Usage Reports, GCP Billing Reports, and BI/dashboarding.
• Familiarity with Linear and Notion as the system of record for FinOps work, or willingness to learn.
• Experience in FinOps, cloud cost management, or cloud governance and ability to present findings to both technical and non-technical audiences.
