Cloud Finops Consultant

Sydney, New South Wales, Australia DigiRen Full time
At DigiRen we passionately believe that cloud is the best place to get work done.

Founded by industry experts, DigiRen is a specialised consultancy focused on helping large commercial and public sector organisations build and scale new capabilities and ways of working to fully realise the benefit of public cloud computing.


Through decades of combined experience, we know that success in cloud computing is less about the technology, and more about understanding and managing an organisations adoption of new tools, processes and ways of working.

It is essential that Cloud is not established as a technological island within an organisation, but integrated and seen as a catalyst to evolve a range of functions within Group IT.


We are vendor agnostic, possess a deep understanding of hyperscale cloud technologies, but anchor our engagements on the orchestration of change and the delivery of strategic outcomes.

We are trusted advisors to our customers, helping them build new organisational capabilities, become self-sufficient, and take control of their cloud journey.

DigiRen operates a flat, highly collaborative and supportive working environment. Our focus on people drives our company culture. We are an inclusive team that nurtures our people for the long term.

We value diversity of experience and anyone who can drive outcomes that deliver value to our customers; DigiRen is a community that enables great work and accelerated learning.

The DigiRen team works remotely and offers flexible work models to support an effective work/life balance.

We support professional development and have a deep commitment to the health and wellbeing of our team supported by world-class wellness programs and initiatives.


The Role


As a Cloud FinOps Specialist at DigiRen, you will join an inclusive and welcoming team of Cloud leaders who are among the best in the business.

You will work with our customers to define and establish/improve their cloud financial management practices to assist them in realising the maximum business value of cloud.

This may include operating & uplifting the customer's cloud financial management function until the customer is able to staff/resource the function appropriately.

We are looking for people at consultant or senior consultant level for this role and are flexible with where the role is based (either Canberra, Sydney or Melbourne).

  • Help our clients to define their strategy and operating model for cloud financial/cost management based on best practices/frameworks, namely FinOps (but also others, such as TBM)
  • Implement FinOps functions/practices for clients, including but not limited to, cloud billing/invoice management, cloud cost chargeback/showback (including tagging to facilitate cost attribution), cloud forecasting/utilization tracking, and cloud cost optimisation (rightsizing, decommissioning idle/unused resources, power scheduling, reserved instances/savings plans, etc).
  • Assist clients to implement or enhance cloud financial management tooling, including COTS products (e.g. Apptio Cloudability, VMware CloudHealth, CloudCheckr) and native tooling options (e.g. AWS Cost Explorer/Trusted Advisor, Azure Cost Management) to support their cloud financial management outcomes.
  • Support clients in commercial negotiations with public cloud providers to improve rate optimisation (through various discount programs and incentive schemes).
  • Work with various client stakeholders (cloud engineering/operations teams, cloud user groups) to embed cloud financial/cost management (FinOps) practices into their daytoday operations, therefore helping to accelerate client outcomes (i.e. cloud cost reduction/optimisation).
  • Continuously seek new valueadd opportunities for customers, and convert those new opportunities to realised value. Play a lead role in earning enterprise customer references that describe industryleading innovation and results.
  • Demonstrate valuable leadership on a variety of initiatives and projects simultaneously, both internally and externally.
  • Regularly coaches and mentors others on best practices, enforcing the highest standards, and providing valuable feedback on performance and career development.
  • Proactively identify blockers in customers realising value from cloud and lead development of relevant solutions. Drive market momentum for DigiRen's services by sharing innovative solutions and related customer references.

Requirements:

  • Experience and expertise with public cloud financial components/concepts, including but not limited to, cost & usage reports (CUR), reserved instances (RIs), savings plans, committed use discounts (CUDs), enterprise discount programs (EDPs), spot pricing, etc
