What You'll Do 

NetDocuments is seeking a Staff FinOps Engineer to lead cloud financial operations across AWS and Azure. In this role, you will drive financial governance, cost visibility, and optimization strategies across a large-scale multi-cloud SaaS environment, partnering closely with CloudOps, Engineering, Finance, and leadership teams to improve operational efficiency and maximize business value. 

This is a highly strategic and hands-on role grounded in the FinOps Foundation Framework, with direct accountability for translating financial insights into engineering action and measurable cost optimization outcomes. 

You will: 

Lead Cloud Financial Strategy & Governance 

• Drive FinOps practices across AWS and Azure using the FinOps Foundation Framework domains: Understand Usage and Cost, Quantify Business Value, Optimize Usage and Cost, and Manage the FinOps Practice. 
• Establish and maintain cost allocation models, tagging standards, and governance frameworks that enable accurate, actionable financial visibility. 
• Develop and enforce cloud financial policies, standards, and operational best practices across Engineering and CloudOps teams. 
• Partner with leadership to support cloud cost reduction initiatives and long-term infrastructure efficiency goals. 

Drive Cost Visibility & Financial Insights 

• Own and manage CloudZero configuration, including taxonomy, tagging governance, and cost allocation rules. 
• Deliver actionable reporting and analysis for Engineering, Product, Finance, and leadership stakeholders, including anomaly detection, trend analysis, forecasting, and variance reporting. 
• Maintain visibility across AWS, Azure, Datadog, Elastic, and related platforms. 
• Advance cost intelligence initiatives, including unit economics and cost-per-customer analysis. 

Optimize Cloud & SaaS Spend 

• Identify and drive optimization opportunities across Reserved Instances, Savings Plans, rightsizing, storage optimization, and SaaS licensing. 
• Develop and maintain utilization and cost-per-unit reporting across key infrastructure and vendor platforms. 
• Partner with Engineering teams to improve cost-aware architecture and operational decision-making. 
• Track optimization initiatives through measurable outcomes and ongoing KPI reporting. 

Build & Scale the FinOps Practice 

• Embed FinOps processes into budgeting, forecasting, operational reviews, and engineering workflows. 
• Coach Engineering and CloudOps teams on cost accountability and sustainable financial operations under a "You Build It, You Run It" model. 
• Automate repeatable governance and reporting workflows using SQL, Python, and infrastructure tooling. 
• Drive adoption of emerging FinOps standards such as the FinOps Open Cost and Usage Specification (FOCUS). 

Support Emerging AI & Platform Cost Management 

• Establish financial visibility and governance models for AI and machine learning workloads, including cost-per-token analysis and budget guardrails. 
• Partner with teams across the organization to evaluate evolving infrastructure usage patterns and cost drivers. 
• Help shape scalable financial operating models for emerging technologies and cloud-native platforms. 

What You'll Need to Be Successful 

• 5+ years of experience in cloud financial management, FinOps, cloud infrastructure operations, or related disciplines. 
• Deep expertise in AWS cost architecture and strong working knowledge of Azure cost management. 
• Experience administering FinOps platforms, including ownership of cost allocation rules, tagging governance, and financial reporting structures. 
• Strong proficiency in SQL and Python for reporting, analysis, and automation. 
• Experience building cloud cost forecasts, financial models, and executive-level variance reporting. 
• Strong understanding of AWS cost optimization strategies, including Reserved Instances, Savings Plans, and enterprise discount models. 
• Experience implementing governance policies using Terraform, AWS Service Control Policies, or similar infrastructure-as-code approaches. 
• Demonstrated ability to influence Engineering teams and drive operational change without direct authority. 
• Strong analytical, communication, and stakeholder management skills. 
• Applied understanding of the FinOps Foundation Framework, including its principles, capabilities, and operating model. 

What Will Make You Stand Out 

• FinOps Certified Practitioner or FinOps Certified Engineer certification. 
• Experience with CloudZero or similar enterprise FinOps platforms. 
• Experience with Azure Enterprise Agreement or Microsoft Customer Agreement discount structures. 
• Working knowledge of Terraform or CloudFormation for infrastructure and architecture reviews. 
• Experience in SaaS environments where infrastructure costs directly impact gross margin performance. 
• Experience managing cloud financial operations for AI or machine learning workloads.
