- Automate cost governance, reporting, anomaly detection, and policy enforcement via scripts and IaC (Python, Terraform, Lambda).
- Partner with engineering teams on architectural decisions to ensure cost efficiency is considered early in design.
- Collaborate with Finance on forecasting, budget tracking, and building cross-functional cost dashboards.
What you bring
- Strong AWS expertise and working GCP knowledge, including pricing models, billing structures, and cost optimization mechanics.
- Automation and scripting skills with Python, Terraform/Pulumi, Lambda, or Bash.
- Hands-on experience with cost tooling like AWS Cost Explorer, Cost & Usage Reports, GCP Billing Reports, and BI tools.
