We are looking for a Cloud FinOps Engineer to own and drive cost optimization across our cloud infrastructure and data platforms. This role is for someone who lives and breathes cloud efficiency—who’s as comfortable diving into EC2 right-sizing reports as they are tuning Spark jobs, advising Kubernetes cost models, and shaping long-term AWS financial strategy.
Requirements
- Lead cost optimization efforts across our AWS estate (EC2, EKS, S3, EBS, Lambda, RDS, etc.), delivering measurable savings and performance wins.
- Analyze and optimize Apache Spark jobs (EMR/EKS) — improve executor tuning, autoscaling, and job scheduling for efficiency.
- Partner with Data Engineering to optimize Airflow DAGs, reduce pipeline waste, and manage resource-intensive workflows.
- Reduce Kubernetes costs through node pool optimization, vcluster strategy, pod rightsizing, and non-prod automation.
- Implement and manage Savings Plans, Reserved Instances, and workload scheduling to maximize discount coverage.
- Audit and improve Snowflake usage patterns — warehouse sizing, query optimization, idle resource management.
- Collaborate with Finance to build accurate cloud cost allocation models, showback dashboards, and budget forecasting tools.
- Drive tagging enforcement, anomaly detection, and policy automation using tools like AWS CUR, Athena, QuickSight, or 3rd-party FinOps platforms.
- Advocate for and implement cost-conscious design patterns in collaboration with DevOps, SRE, and software engineers.
- Establish FinOps KPIs (e.g., cost per Spark job, cost per API call, efficiency scores) and drive continuous improvement.
Benefits
- Competitive salaries with growth incentives
- Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance
- 15 Vacation Days, 5 Flex Days, 5 Sick Days, and remote work options year-round
- Fully paid parental leave for both parents

- Winter Recess between Christmas and New Years
- Commuter and Parking Benefits through Wage Works
- Eligible to contribute to your 401(K) Retirement Plan after six (6) months of employment.
