Following our recent $100M Series C funding round, we are in a phase of rapid hypergrowth with strong enterprise momentum.\nWe act as the central nervous system for engineering, enabling platform teams to unify their stack and expose it as a governed layer through golden paths for developers and AI agents.\nBy combining rich engineering context, workflows, and actions, we help organizations transition from manual processes to autonomous, AI-assisted engineering workflows while maintaining control and accountability.\nAs a product-led company, we believe in building platforms that fundamentally shape how modern engineering organizations operate.\nWhy we’re looking for you:\nWe're looking for a FinOps Engineer to own visibility and accountability for cloud spend across our R&D org. You'll be the person who finds the problem, proves it with data, routes it to the right team, and makes sure it actually gets fixed - you will also use your deep familiarity with the numbers and trends to keep R&D leadership and finance informed.\nYou'll spend as much time in Slack and 1:1s with engineering and DevOps teams as you will in cost dashboards. Success here looks like fewer cost surprises, faster resolution of known issues, correct detection of high value optimization targets, and a monthly narrative that leadership trusts and uses to make decisions.\nYour responsibilities will include:\nContinuously monitor cloud and infrastructure costs (AWS, and any other relevant vendors) to spot inefficiencies, anomalies, and unhealthy trends before they become expensive habits.\nPartner with engineering teams and DevOps to investigate flagged costs - understand whya service costs what it costs, not just thatit does.\nTranslate technical cost drivers into business terms: what's driving the number, what it's costing us, and what the fix is worth.\nTriage and route identified issues to the correct owning team, with enough context that they can act without a lengthy discovery phase.\nTrack open cost issues to resolution - follow up, unblock, and confirm the fix actually landed in the numbers.\nOwn the FinOps reporting format, cadence and methodology: cost trends, savings realized, open risks, and where we're headed.\nBuild and maintain relationships with vendor/cloud account teams (e.g., AWS, DoiT) to support cost reviews and negotiations.\nHelp establish tagging, budgeting, and cost-allocation practices that make future issues easier to spot.\nWho you’ll work with:\nYou'll report into R&D and work closely with R&D teams and the DevOps team to detect, investigate, and remediate cost issues.\nYou will work with R&D and Finance leadership to reflect current spend trends, outline our mitigation efforts, and provide financial forecasts.\nRequirements\nWhat we’re looking for:\n5+ years of experience as a FinOps engineer\nWorking technical literacy: understand cloud billing models (compute, storage, data transfer, managed services) and can read a cost breakdown well enough to ask the right questions\nStrong business/financial acumen - comfortable with budgets, trend analysis, ROI framing, and building a compelling narrative from numbers\nExperience with cost management/observability tooling (AWS Cost Explorer, DoiT, or similar)\nComfortable owning a recurring leadership-facing deliverable (reporting, forecasting, or similar) end to end\nExcellent cross-functional communication skills\nFluent Hebrew and English\nNice to have:\nExperience working directly with AWS/cloud vendor account teams on cost reviews\nBackground in vendor management or technical program management\nBackground as a DevOps engineer working with AWS","description_format":"text","description_chars":3757,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"Hebrew","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":false},{"language":"English","level":"Advanced (C1)","optional":false}]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"Israel","iso":"IL","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Design & Creative","DevOps & Platform Engineering","Branding","Developer Tools"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-11-02T11:09:39Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":1,"expected_fill_days":11,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-04T06:34:25Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/port-finops-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/port-finops-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-04T21:25:10Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":33190,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-05T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":49228},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=49228"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fport-finops-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fport-finops-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fport-finops-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/port-finops-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fport-finops-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3604582}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"port.io","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3604582},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
