Their platform is designed to enhance organizational efficiency by integrating various financial functions into a single, easily manageable system, thereby enabling businesses to make informed decisions based on real-time financial data.

📋 Description

• Develop and maintain a comprehensive cloud financial management framework across our SaaS offering: forecasting, budgeting, actuals vs. plan, cost allocation, unit economics (e.g., cost per customer, cost per node/tenant/instance). • Lead cloud cost optimization programs: e.g., reserved commitments/savings plans, right-sizing, idle resource elimination, tagging and chargeback/cleanup initiatives. • Partner with Engineering/CloudOps/Product teams to integrate cloud cost visibility into operations (dashboards, KPIs, alerts) and instill. FinOps culture (cost awareness, cost accountability). • Drive reporting for executive leadership and the board: highlight cost-trends, anomalies, savings progress, risk of overruns, and tradeoffs between cost, performance and growth. • Define and enforce governance and controls around cloud cost and usage: tagging standards, cost-allocation models, approval workflows for new services, cloud contract negotiation/commitment reviews. • Lead a team of FinOps analysts/engineers: hire, coach, set strategy, measure effectiveness and build influence across the organization. • Collaborate with Finance/FP&A to ensure that cloud costs are correctly reflected in financial planning, customer-unit economics, pricing discussions, and business case modelling for new products or global expansion. • Stay abreast of public-cloud provider pricing models (AWS, Azure, GCP), emerging cloud-cost tools, and FinOps best practices, bring innovation in cost management automation, tagging enforcement, anomaly detection and internal chargeback. • Support M&A, product launches or major cloud migrations by providing financial modelling of cloud cost impact, run-rate changes, and forecasting scenarios. • Own the narrative around cloud cost in the SaaS business: translate technical cloud-usage metrics into business implications for growth, margin and scalability.
