We're looking for a FinOps Engineer with a DevOps backbone who has an almost
obsessive eye for cost leaks, idle resources, and inefficiencies across our platform. If unused
EBS volumes, oversized instances, or a forgotten dev environment running on weekends
genuinely bother you — you'll fit right in.
This isn't a passive reporting role. You'll be expected to proactively hunt for waste,
propose optimizations, and drive strategic cost conversations with engineering, SRE,
and leadership across Zoop's entire platform — from infrastructure and Kubernetes clusters
to data pipelines and third-party services.
What You'll Own
● Continuously audit Zoop's cloud footprint (AWS/Azure/GCP) end-to-end —
compute, storage, networking, databases, observability stack, and SaaS tooling
— and flag every form of waste, big or small.
● Proactively propose cost-reduction strategies rather than waiting to be asked
— bring data, options, trade-offs, and a recommendation to the table.
● Lead monthly/quarterly cost reviews with engineering and product leadership;
turn billing data into actionable conversations.
● Build cost visibility dashboards and chargeback/showback models so every team
at Zoop knows what they're spending and why.
● Drive rightsizing, autoscaling tuning, Spot/Reserved Instance/Savings Plan
strategies, and storage tiering across the platform.
● Embed cost guardrails into CI/CD pipelines, IaC (Terraform/CloudFormation), and
Kubernetes manifests — catch wasteful resources before they're deployed.
● Optimize Kubernetes cost efficiency using tools like Kubecost, OpenCost, or
Karpenter; tune requests/limits, HPA/VPA, and node pools.
● Set up automated alerts and anomaly detection for budget breaches, idle
resources, and runaway costs.
● Partner with Finance for forecasting, unit economics (cost per user/transaction),
and cloud budget planning.
● Evangelize a cost-aware engineering culture — run internal sessions, write
playbooks, and make FinOps a shared responsibility, not a finance afterthought.
Who You Are
● Someone with genuine OCD around cost and wastage — you can't sleep
knowing a non-prod cluster ran all weekend at full capacity.
● A DevOps practitioner first, who understands why costs happen at the
infrastructure level — not just someone reading billing reports.
● Naturally proactive — you don't wait for tickets; you spot patterns, dig in, and
propose changes before anyone asks.
● Comfortable challenging engineering decisions diplomatically when they're
expensive, and equally comfortable defending necessary spend to finance.
● A clear communicator who can talk to both a senior engineer about Karpenter
configs and a CFO about quarterly burn.
Required Qualifications
● 3+ years of hands-on experience in DevOps, Cloud Engineering, SRE, or Cloud
FinOps roles.
● Strong working knowledge of at least one major cloud provider (AWS preferred), including native cost tools (Cost Explorer, CUR, Azure Cost Management, or GCP Billing).
● Proficiency with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, or Pulumi).
● Hands-on experience with Docker and Kubernetes (EKS/AKS/GKE).
● Scripting in Python, Bash, or Go for automation, reporting, and cost tooling.
● Familiarity with CI/CD tools (Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, ArgoCD).
● Solid grasp of cloud pricing models — On-Demand, Reserved Instances, Savings
Plans, Spot/Preemptible, committed-use discounts.
● SQL skills for querying billing data (AWS CUR via Athena/Redshift, BigQuery
billing exports).
Nice to Have
● FinOps Certified Practitioner (FOCP) certification.
● Cloud certifications (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
● Experience with FinOps platforms (CloudHealth, Cloudability/Apptio, Spot.io,
Vantage, Kubecost).
● Exposure to multi-cloud or hybrid-cloud cost optimization.
● Understanding of SaaS unit economics (cost per customer, cost per transaction,
gross margin impact).
