  • Proven expertise with public cloud platforms (AWS and/or Azure) and strong experience with container orchestration (Kubernetes/OpenShift).
  • Solid understanding of FinOps practices and experience in cloud cost optimisation within multi-cloud environments.
  • Excellent communication, influencing, and stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to drive change and foster collaboration across teams.
