Shift FinOps Left: Proactively Find & Fix Cloud Cost Issues
Overview
The spend on public cloud is fast approaching $1 trillion per year - we estimate this boundary will be crossed before the turn of the decade.
There are multiple reasons why this will happen: traditional large enterprises moving from on-premises to cloud infrastructure, and the AI wave generating additional spend. However, there's an even more significant hidden cause. In the past, only a small group (usually a central team) would provision cloud resources and grant access to the rest of the organization. But with the rise of Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and platform engineering teams, every engineer can now provision resources as needed. This fundamentally changes the dynamics—every engineer has become a buyer making spending decisions.
Infracost helps engineers see the cost of their code changes before any money has been spent - we sit in the engineering workflow, and when an engineer makes a code change, we tell them how much it will cost and how to optimize it!
In this role, you’ll work directly with our co-founders, Hassan and Ali, to stand up our product marketing function and own the messaging and storytelling. There are two parts to this: first is to tell the above story and educate the market, and second is to show the value of Infracost.

Since launching Infracost in 2021, we’ve been pulled by engineers who all want to Shift FinOps Left. We enable them to proactively find and fix cloud cost issues before they hit production. We plug directly into developer workflows (like GitHub and Azure Repos), show cost impact in pull requests, enforce tagging and FinOps best practices, and even generate PRs to fix issues automatically.
We're backed by Sequoia, YC and trusted by Fortune 500 enterprises. You'll join a small, experienced, and supportive team that's shipping fast, solving real infrastructure problems, and having fun while doing it.
Whether you're an engineer tackling complex systems (e.g. parsing massive Terraform repos, scaling real-time systems), a product manager shaping strategy from real customer pain points, or a customer success lead working directly with users; there’s meaningful work here for you. If you care about cloud efficiency, great UX, and helping teams move faster and smarter, we’d love to work with you!
