This allows our company culture to be defined by our team members, and their shared values, like trust, ambition, quality, radical honesty, and compassionate leadership.

We pride ourselves on bringing unrivaled performance and simplicity to Connected TV advertising. Our self-serve technology makes running TV ads as easy as search and social and helps brands drive measurable conversions, revenue, site visits, and more.

So if wanting to do more, own more, and make a bigger impact comes naturally to you, then you may be the person we're looking for to join us in our next stage of growth.
We’re looking for a Cloud FinOps Engineer to help us better understand, manage, and optimize our cloud spend as we scale. This is a critical role that blends financial expertise, deep knowledge of AWS/GCP, and strong data analysis skills to drive cost efficiency across our infrastructure. You’ll partner closely with Engineering, DevOps, and Finance to forecast spend, surface insights, and make sure our infrastructure decisions are as smart financially as they are technically.
What You’ll Do
- Own forecasting, analysis, and reporting of our cloud spend across AWS and/or GCP
- Build models and dashboards to track cost trends, usage spikes, and savings opportunities
- Work with engineers to optimize workloads, right-size resources, and reduce waste without sacrificing performance
- Develop and maintain tagging strategies to improve cost allocation and reporting granularity
- Analyze cost anomalies and work with relevant teams to address them proactively
- Serve as a bridge between engineering and finance—helping both sides make informed, cost-aware decisions
- Contribute to internal tooling that surfaces cloud cost insights in real time
- Leverage infrastructure knowledge (Terraform, Kubernetes, CI/CD) to spot inefficiencies and recommend improvements
What You Bring
- 5+ years of experience in a role blending cloud infrastructure and financial analysis (e.g., FinOps, DevOps with cost focus, cloud economics)
- Deep understanding of AWS or GCP billing and usage patterns
- Strong SQL skills and experience analyzing large-scale datasets
- Experience with cost visibility or FinOps tools (e.g., CloudHealth, CloudZero, GCP Billing Export, AWS Cost Explorer)
- Familiarity with cloud-native services, containers, and modern infrastructure (e.g., Terraform, Kubernetes)
- Ability to communicate technical + financial topics clearly to both engineers and non-technical stakeholders
Bonus Points
- Experience in performance marketing, SaaS, or ad tech environments
- Certifications in AWS, GCP, or FinOps
- Experience working cross-functionally with FP&A, Finance, or BizOps teams
- Background in cost modeling or unit economics
