  • Resource Management: Review and manage AWS resources to ensure efficient utilization while aligning with organizational needs and cost objectives.
  • Pricing Model Analysis: Evaluate and recommend suitable AWS pricing models (e.g., on-demand, spot instances, reserved instances) based on workload requirements and cost-efficiency considerations.
  • Reporting: Generate detailed cost reports and forecasts, offering actionable insights and recommendations to stakeholders.
  • Cost Governance: Define, establish, and enforce policies and best practices for cloud cost management across the organization.
  • Performance KPIs: Define cloud cost performance KPIs and ensure regular tracking and reporting against agreed benchmarks.
  • Tool Implementation: Configure and utilize AWS tools and third-party solutions such as AWS Cost Explorer, Trusted Advisor, and cloud management platforms for effective cost management.
  • Collaboration: Build strong working relationships with application owners, Finance, and other teams to understand cloud usage patterns and develop cost-effective solutions. Proactively engage with IS and business communities as a visible ambassador of IT initiatives.
  • Continuous Improvement: Stay current with the latest AWS features, cost management tools, and industry best practices to enhance cost optimization strategies continuously.

Qualifications

  • 10+ years of experience with one/more public/private cloud platforms (e.g. AWS, Azure, etc.).
  • Experience with capacity forecasting, cloud cost optimization techniques, financial reporting, and workflow management in a large service operations environment. Familiarity with monitoring and reporting tools/APIs.
  • Understanding of cloud providers, platforms and configurations and familiarity with workload usage/consumption patterns on cloud.
  • Good understanding of billing on cloud platforms (incl. impact of usage patterns on TCO)
  • Ability to develop effective reporting schemes/metrics to maintain strong control on usage and billing of cloud services.
  • Ability to liaise with multiple stakeholders (across IS, finance, business functions) and proactively identify opportunities for service improvement.
  • Demonstrated skills in working across multi-functional teams to bring increased business value through seeing the bigger picture, collaboration and alignment of diverse needs
