  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related technical field (or equivalent practical experience)
  • 5+ years of hands-on software engineering experience, with a strong focus on building cloud-native applications and platforms
  • Proficiency in modern programming languages: Next.js (or React) for frontend and Go for backend services
  • Strong experience with Docker for containerization and Kubernetes for orchestration
  • Experience designing and building scalable data pipelines, APIs, or backend services in a cloud environment
  • Solid understanding of cloud fundamentals across at least one major provider (Azure, GCP, AWS), including cost structures, billing concepts, and resource optimization
  • Demonstrated ability to write clean, maintainable code, conduct code reviews, and participate in technical decision-making
  • Demonstrated ability to clearly communicate technical and non-technical information verbally and in writing
  • Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to deliver high-quality features quickly in an agile environment

Nice to have:

  • 7+ years of software engineering experience, including 2+ years specifically in FinOps, cloud cost management, or building internal developer platforms
  • Deep experience with Kubernetes, particularly around resource utilization and efficient workload management
  • Hands-on experience with multi-cloud environments and working with cloud billing data ingestion and cost analytics
  • Experience implementing CI/CD pipelines using tools such as GitHub Actions and ArgoCD
  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC), preferably Terraform
  • Deep familiarity with FinOps principles and practices (e.g. showback/chargeback models, optimization recommendations, cost visibility tools, and the FOCUS format)
  • Experience building self-service onboarding portal or platforms that improve developer experience and embed cost controls
  • Proficiency with data processing, metrics generation, and recommendation engines (SQL, data pipelines, analytics tools)
