- Optimization & Engineering
- Execute rightsizing, scheduling, and lifecycle management of cloud resources across AWS, Azure, and GCP (EC2, VM, GCE, RDS, S3, Storage, Networking).
- Manage and optimize Reservations, Savings Plans, Committed Use Discounts (CUDs), and licensing benefits (BYOL, AHB).
- Implement policy-as-code and governance using tools like Terraform, AWS Config, Azure Policy, or GCP Organization Policies.
- Participate in anomaly detection, spend forecasting, and automation of remediation workflows.
- Contribute to CI/CD pipeline management, infrastructure automation, and GitOps practices using Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, AWS CodePipeline, or Google Cloud Build.
- Operate & Partner
- Provide actionable insights in monthly cost and performance reviews with engineering and product stakeholders.
- Partner with Finance and Procurement teams on budgeting, forecasting, and billing validation.
- Collaborate with SRE and Platform teams to balance cost efficiency, performance, and reliability.
- Maintain operational hygiene through scripting, compliance audits, and automation.
