Work Arrangement: Hybrid: This role is categorized as hybrid. This means the successful candidate is expected to report to Austin, TX or Warren, MI three times per week, at minimum . At General Motors, we're driving a massive digital transformation—and the Cloud Engineering & FinOps team is at the heart of it. As part of the Digital Products, Cloud and AI Platforms organization, we design and operate the core multi-cloud infrastructure and foundational services that power GM's global enterprise. Our mission is to remove friction from the cloud: enabling faster software delivery while optimizing cost, performance, and scale. We treat developer experience as a product, delivering modern cloud-native platforms that empower engineering teams rapidly build and deploy the next generation of GM's digital services.
Job Responsibility:
Building FinOps tooling and cloud onboarding experiences that power GM's enterprise-wide cloud transformation
Design, develop, and evolve our in-house Cloud Onboarding and FinOps Portal—a modern platform built with Next.js (frontend) and Go (backend services)
Creating frictionless developer and team experiences by embedding cost awareness, usage optimization, and governance directly into the cloud onboarding and operational workflows
Own key components including: Billing data ingestion pipelines from major cloud providers (Azure, GCP, AWS)
Utilization metrics, cost analytics, and optimization recommendation engines
Cloud onboarding workflows and frictionless, self-service capabilities
Design and build scalable, cloud-native services with speed and quality
Lead technical decision-making and architecture discussions
Conduct code reviews and uphold high engineering standards across the team
Collaborate closely with peer teams to design new features and deliver end-to-end solutions
Iterate rapidly based on user feedback while maintaining platform reliability and performance
Requirements:
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)
Familiarity with observability tools and standards, including OpenTelemetry (Otel) and Datadog
Prior experience in a large enterprise environment or similarly complex organizations
Excellent collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively with cross-functional engineering and finance stakeholders
