Sitting at the intersection of Finance and Engineering, this role transforms complex cloud consumption data into strategic financial insight — and translates budget constraints into actionable guidance for engineering and architecture teams. This is not a back-office finance role. You will be the primary liaison between FP&A, accounting, procurement, and the cloud engineering teams running AWS and Azure workloads. You will own cloud financial governance end-to-end: from annual budgets and monthly forecasts to optimization roadmaps and executive reporting.</p> <p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]"><strong>What You’ll Do </strong></p> <p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]">Location: On site 4x a week (Tuesday–Friday) </p> <p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]">Reports to: VP of Finance</p> <p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]">Direct Reports: N/A (Individual Contributor + Cross-functional Leadership)</p> <p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]"><strong>Financial Planning & Forecasting</strong></p> <ul class="[li_&]:mb-0 [li_&]:mt-1 [li_&]:gap-1 [&:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3"> <li class="font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Develop cloud spend forecasts and annual budgets, owning variance analysis end-to-end.</li> <li class="font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Build financial models for cloud migration initiatives and evaluate ROI of infrastructure investments.</li> <li class="f
