You will
Work across engineering departments to coordinate cost reporting, evangelize savings opportunities, and evaluate the cost effectiveness of new engineering initiatives.
Use Datadog, BI visualization tools, SQL, and spreadsheet wizardry to build cost models and discover meaningful insights about cloud usage.
Explore new/unfamiliar cost areas, toolsets, and visualizations to raise the bar on how well our team serves our customers.
