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).

Experience: 2–5 years

Why this role exists
Most systems don’t fail because of one big outage.
They fail because reliability is treated as an afterthought.
Right now, uptime depends too much on individual heroics.
That doesn’t scale.
This role exists to build a reliability system where:
- Uptime is predictable
- Failures are contained
- Escalations don’t depend on leadership
What you’ll do
You will not just monitor systems.
You will own reliability as a product.
1. Drive uptime to production-grade reliability
- Improve system uptime to 99.9% customer-facing SLA within 4 months
- Define and track:
- SLAs / SLOs / error budgets
- Ensure reliability is measured from the customer’s perspective, not internal metrics
2. Build incident response as a system
- Set up a 24/7 incident response rotation across 3 engineers
- Eliminate dependency on leadership (no single escalation point)
- Define:
- Incident severity levels
- Response playbooks
- Escalation protocols
- Ensure fast detection → containment → resolution
3. Contain and fix erratic system behavior
- Identify and resolve:
- Latency spikes
- Downtime incidents
- Integration failures
- Build guardrails to prevent recurrence
- Focus on root cause elimination, not temporary fixes
4. Create continuous reliability feedback loops
- Work closely with engineering teams to:
- Surface recurring failure patterns
- Improve build quality
- Reduce production bugs
- Ensure learnings from incidents directly improve future releases
5. Improve observability and monitoring
- Build dashboards and alerts for:
- System health
- Performance metrics
- Failure signals
- Ensure issues are detected before customers report them
6. Reduce operational fragility
- Remove single points of failure (people, systems, workflows)
- Improve system resilience across:
- Deployments
- Integrations
- Runtime environments
What success looks like
- Uptime reaches 99.9%+ reliably
- Incidents are:
- Detected early
- Contained quickly
- Resolved permanently
- No dependency on a single individual for escalation
- System behavior becomes predictable and stable
- Engineering teams ship with higher reliability confidence
Who you are
- You have 2-5 years of experience in SRE / DevOps / backend systems
- You have worked on production systems with real uptime expectations
- You think in:
- Systems
- Failure modes
- Trade-offs
- You are comfortable debugging live, high-pressure environments
What will make you stand out
- Experience with:
- Distributed systems
- Cloud infrastructure (AWS / Azure / GCP)
- Monitoring & alerting tools
- Have built or improved:
- Incident response systems
- Reliability frameworks
- Strong debugging skills across:
- Infra
- Application
- Integrations
Compensation
₹60,000/month (fixed)
(Aligned with role scope and impact expectations)
Why join
- You will define reliability standards for a production AI platform
- Your work directly impacts:
- Customer trust
- Product performance
- Enterprise readiness
- You will move the system from reactive → predictable
What this role is not
- Not just monitoring dashboards
- Not limited to handling tickets
- Not dependent on escalation to leadership
What this role is
- A builder of reliability systems
- A guardian of uptime and performance
- A multiplier of engineering quality
One question to self-evaluate
Can you build a system where downtime is rare, predictable, and never dependent on a single person?
