Cloud FinOps Analyst

Role Overview

We are looking for a driven Cloud FinOps Analyst to help design, develop, and mature cloud financial management (FinOps) capabilities across the organization. This role partners closely with engineering, product, and finance teams to translate cloud usage into clear financial insights, improve cost transparency, and enable disciplined forecasting and optimization across AWS (and potentially Azure/GCP).

What You Will Do

You will become a trusted liaison between engineering and finance—helping finance quantify the cost impacts of engineering and operational decisions, and helping engineering adopt cost management best practices. You will build and evolve forecasting models, create real-time cost reporting and KPI dashboards, and support a pragmatic FinOps roadmap that drives accountability and measurable outcomes.

Why It Might Be a Fit

You will develop, maintain, and evolve cloud cost forecasting models that provide insight into current and future cloud spend. You will partner with engineering and product teams to attribute cloud costs to teams and services, establish forecasts, and identify primary cost drivers.

Requirements

• Strong analytical skills with advanced proficiency in Excel.
• Experience with BI and data visualization tools such as Power BI, Tableau, or similar.
• Experience with cost allocation, forecasting, anomaly detection, and optimization analysis.
