## Description

Accenture Federal Services is seeking a Cloud Cost/Finance Engineer to serve as the key liaison between enterprise cloud platform teams and application stakeholders operating across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform environments. In a diverse, multi-cloud ecosystem, the role is responsible for ensuring cloud services are secure, consumable, scalable, and aligned with mission requirements.

You will translate technical cloud capabilities and security requirements into actionable roadmaps and adoption strategies. As the "Voice of the Customer" for the Cloud Engineering teams and a "Champion of Cloud Best Practices" for application teams, you will help drive modernization, cloud-native adoption, and consistent operational excellence across the enterprise.

Work you'll do:
*

 + Establish, evangelize, and govern FinOps policies and best practices across multi-cloud environments (e.g., AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform).
 + Lead efforts to optimize cloud commitments (e.g., Reserved Instances, Savings Plans) and advise on optimal pricing models for new and existing workloads.
 + Serve as the technical expert and architectural advisor for cloud cost optimization, reviewing new and existing designs to ensure cost-effectiveness and efficiency.
 + Identify architectural waste and inefficiencies, providing clear, documented remediation plans (e.g., rightsizing, storage tiering, resource lifecycle management).
 + Design and build automated tools, scripts, and processes to enforce FinOps governance, detect cost anomalies, and automate remediation actions (e.g., using Python, Terraform, Cloud APIs).
 + Develop custom dashboards and data visualizations using cloud-native tools or third-party platforms (e.g., Power BI, Tableau, Grafana) to monitor key financial and operational metrics.
 + Partner with development teams to refactor and re-architect critical applications for improved cloud efficiency.
