Project description

We are looking to engage an experienced Senior FinOps Engineer / Cloud Cost Optimization Lead to help us establish a sustainable cloud cost optimization practice within our Data Platforms group.

Our objective is not simply a one-time AWS cost assessment or cleanup. We want to achieve measurable infrastructure cost reductions while establishing a long-term, proactive FinOps capability that continuously identifies, prevents and remediates infrastructure waste.
The role is for subcontractors.

Responsibilities
bullet icon

Cost Optimization: Analyze AWS spending across accounts, services and workloads; identify optimization opportunities; establish clear dollar reduction targets; and drive implementation of measurable savings.

bullet icon

Proactive Monitoring & Remediation: Implement automated detection of infrastructure waste, underutilized resources, cost anomalies and inefficient configurations, with actionable remediation workflows.

bullet icon

Engineering Automation & Guardrails: Embed cost-efficiency practices into infrastructure provisioning, CI/CD and operational processes to prevent recurring waste.

bullet icon

FinOps Governance: Establish cost ownership, allocation, budgets, forecasting, reporting and a regular operational review cadence.

bullet icon

Sustainable Operating Model: Build a continuous feedback loop for identifying, prioritizing, implementing and validating optimizations, with documented processes, automation and knowledge transfer to our engineering teams.

Skills

Must have

Strong hands-on AWS infrastructure engineering and FinOps experience, with a demonstrated track record of delivering measurable cost savings.

Experience optimizing AWS services, particularly EMR, EC2, Glue, Athena, S3 and other data platform infrastructure.

Strong Python, SQL, Terraform and infrastructure automation skills.

Nice to have

bullet icon

We are particularly interested in candidates who have successfully implemented FinOps capabilities at scale, combining hands-on engineering expertise with automation, operational discipline and measurable financial outcomes.
