Responsibilities:
• Lead the "Inform, Optimize, and Operate" phases of the FinOps lifecycle to maintain a lean cloud footprint.
• Proactively manage the lifecycle of Azure Reservations and Savings Plans to maximize ROI and coverage.
• Develop and maintain automated Power BI dashboards and "Showback/Chargeback" reports to provide stakeholders with granular visibility into spend.

• Establish monitoring and logging standards using Azure Monitor and Log Analytics to track both performance and cost anomalies.
Qualifications:
Required:
• 8+ years of experience in IT infrastructure or systems engineering.
• 5+ years of hands-on Azure architecture experience with a proven track record of managing spend at scale ($50k–$100k+/month).
• Expert-level proficiency in IaC: Extensive experience with Terraform (preferred) or Bicep in a production environment.
• Advanced Azure Billing Knowledge: Deep understanding of EA/MCA agreements, Azure Resource Graph (Kusto/KQL), and retail vs. negotiated rates.
• Data Platform Experience: Hands-on experience optimizing Azure Databricks, ADLS, and Entra ID integration.
Preferred:
• FinOps Certified Practitioner (FOCP) – Highly Preferred
• AZ-305: Azure Solutions Architect Expert
• AZ-400: Azure DevOps Engineer Expert
• AZ-700: Azure Network Engineer Associate
• SC-300: Identity and Access Administrator Associate
