Responsibilities

  • Analyze AWS and GCP billing, usage, and cost trends to identify and realize savings through rightsizing, storage lifecycle policies, data transfer optimization, spot usage, and autoscaling.
  • Design and operate BigQuery and dbt models and pipelines that convert raw billing and usage data, including CUR and Storage Lens data, into trustworthy FinOps marts.
  • Build cost-versus-revenue, customer segmentation, unit economics, margin, forecasting, and anomaly-detection models.
  • Develop cost attribution, tagging, allocation, chargeback, and showback systems so engineering teams can understand and own cloud spend.
  • Automate cost reporting, anomaly detection, alerting, and policy enforcement with Python, Terraform, Lambda, and related scripting tools.

  • Data science fundamentals including statistical forecasting, anomaly detection, experimentation, and quantitative savings analysis.
  • Automation and scripting experience with Python, Terraform or Pulumi, Lambda, or Bash.
  • Familiarity with AWS Cost Explorer, Cost and Usage Reports, GCP Billing Reports, and BI or dashboarding tools such as Hex.
  • Ability to analyze cost data and explain it clearly to technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Experience in data analytics, data engineering, or data science within FinOps, cloud cost management, or cloud governance contexts.
  • Experience with Linear and Notion, or willingness to learn them for tracking and documenting FinOps work.
