We are looking for a technically strong and visionary Architect to lead the design of our Multi-Cloud Management Platform (MCMP) and FinOps system. This role requires deep understanding of cloud infrastructure orchestration, enterprise FinOps frameworks, and large-scale platform architecture. You will help define how enterprises govern, optimize, and automate their use of multi-cloud environments.
Key Responsibilities
Architect and evolve a scalable MCMP framework that provides:
- Unified Multi-Cloud Resource Management lifecycle orchestration (provision, update, destroy) across AWS, Azure, GCP, VMware, and private cloud.
- Blueprint Orchestration Engine infrastructure-as-code templates (e.g., Terraform, Helm, ARM) for repeatable, policy-governed service deployment.
- Self-Service Portal & API Gateway multi-tenant, catalog-driven interfaces for developer and operations teams.
- Access Control & Policy Framework identity-aware RBAC/ABAC, quota enforcement, region/network isolation.
Lead FinOps architecture initiatives including:
- Cloud Billing Integration ingestion and normalization of cost/billing data from hyperscalers and private platforms.
- Chargeback/Showback Engine accurate cost allocation by project, BU, or tenant with customizable cost models.
- Cost Optimization Engine AI-driven insights for idle resource detection, right-sizing, commitment management, and scheduling.
- Forecasting & Budget Guardrails anomaly detection, budget burn tracking, and proactive alerts.
- Carbon-Aware Scheduling placement strategies and metrics to reduce carbon footprint of cloud workloads.
- Collaborate with product managers, engineers, SREs, and finance stakeholders to turn business goals into scalable architecture patterns.
- Ensure platform is extensible to support future innovations including AI-native services, intelligent governance, and hybrid edge-cloud integration.
- Benchmark MCMP/FinOps design against industry leaders like HPE Morpheus, CloudHealth, Apptio, and native CSP tools.
Requirements
- 8+ years of experience in cloud platform architecture, DevOps, or infrastructure software, with 3+ years focused on multi-cloud or FinOps systems.
- Deep understanding of cloud provider APIs, billing systems, and resource governance frameworks.
- Proficiency in infrastructure-as-code and orchestration tools (e.g., Terraform, Ansible, Kubernetes Operators).
- Experience with FinOps data pipelines, cost analytics engines, and business metrics integration.
- Familiarity with Open Policy Agent (OPA), Kyverno, or other policy-as-code systems for governance automation.
- Exposure to sustainability computing and carbon-intelligent workload scheduling is a strong plus.
- Skilled in cross-platform integration, performance optimization, and security design.
- Strong communication, documentation, and leadership capabilities.
- Bachelor's or master's degree in computer science, Engineering, or a related field.
