Job Summary 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 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. Qualifications 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.
