Develop executive dashboards and reporting around cloud spend, forecast accuracy, utilization, and optimization
Partner across Finance, Cloud Engineering, IT, Procurement, Product, and business teams
Advise senior leadership on cloud investment decisions, risks, cost drivers, and optimization opportunities
Establish scalable and repeatable FinOps practices across the enterprise
What We're Looking For

Strong financial modeling, budgeting, forecasting, and scenario-analysis skills
Experience with Microsoft Azure and/or another major cloud platform
Ability to understand cloud architecture and translate technical decisions into financial implications
Experience with cloud cost allocation, optimization, governance, and consumption management
Strong executive communication and stakeholder-management skills
Experience leading complex, cross-functional initiatives

Chargeback and showback methodologies
Cloud unit economics
Cloud cost-management and reporting platforms
Data visualization and executive reporting
Cloud contract and commercial-model analysis
Enterprise cloud governance

Engagement: Contract with the potential to convert to full-time employment
