  • This role is critical to improving cloud cost transparency, financial accountability, and operational efficiency across the organization.
  • By partnering closely with Finance, Product, Engineering and Business teams, the FinOps Project Manager ensures cloud budgets are well-understood, optimization opportunities are identified, and cloud consumption aligns with strategic business goals.
