Job Description
About Infinitive:
Infinitive is a data and AI consultancy that enables its clients to modernize, monetize and operationalize their data to create lasting and substantial value. . We possess deep industry and technology expertise to drive and sustain adoption of new capabilities. We match our people and personalities to our clients' culture while bringing the right mix of talent and skills to enable high return on investment.
Infinitive has been named “Best Small Firms to Work For” by Consulting Magazine 8 times most recently in 2025. Infinitive has also been named a Washington Post “Top Workplace”, Washington Business Journal “Best Places to Work”, and Virginia Business “Best Places to Work.”
We are looking for a high-impact Senior Cloud/FinOps Engineer to bridge the gap between cloud engineering and financial accountability. In this role, you won't just be monitoring dashboards; you will be the architect of client's cost-efficiency strategy. You will design, develop, and implement technical requirements and automated processes that integrate FinOps principles directly into our cloud application lifecycle.
The ideal candidate has a deep engineering background with a specific focus on Microsoft Azure, and a passion for building scalable, cost-transparent cloud environments.
Key ResponsibilitiesArchitecture & Design: Design and implement cloud application requirements that prioritize cost-efficiency without sacrificing performance or reliability.
Process Engineering: Develop and deploy automated operational processes for FinOps, including automated tagging enforcement, right-sizing workflows, and lifecycle management policies.
Implementation: Build and maintain cloud governance frameworks using Azure Policy, Blueprints, and Resource Graph to ensure fiscal guardrails are "baked-in" to the infrastructure.
Cost Optimization: Identify and execute complex optimization opportunities, including Reserved Instance (RI) / Savings Plan management, spot instance integration, and architectural refactoring for cost.
Stakeholder Collaboration: Partner with DevOps and Finance teams to create granular cost-attribution models and provide actionable insights through advanced telemetry and reporting.
Tooling & Automation: Develop custom scripts (PowerShell/Python) and utilize Azure Cost Management + Billing to automate anomaly detection and alerting.
Experience: 6+ years in Cloud Engineering/Architecture with at least 2 years focused specifically on FinOps or Cloud Cost Optimization.
Azure Expertise: Mastery of the Azure ecosystem, including Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, Azure Advisor, and Power BI for cost visualization.
Technical Skills:
Proficiency in Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Bicep, or ARM templates).
Strong scripting abilities in PowerShell, Python, or Bash.
Experience with Kubernetes (AKS) cost management and container-level attribution.
FinOps Knowledge: Deep understanding of the FinOps Framework (Inform, Optimize, Operate). FinOps Certified Practitioner (FCP) or Professional status is a significant plus.
Analytical Mindset: Ability to translate complex cloud billing data into business-relevant narratives for executive leadership.
Certifications: Azure Solutions Architect Expert or Azure Administrator Associate.
Experience: Previous experience in a "Chargeback" or "Showback" environment.
Soft Skills: A "consultative" approach—ability to influence engineering teams to adopt cost-saving measures without direct authority.
Infinitive is an Equal Opportunity Employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by applicable federal, state, or local law.
