I optimize multi-cloud spend, automate FinOps operations, and build cost visibility across enterprise cloud environments.
CanadaWhat I'm looking for
At Ovintiv, I monitor and optimize cloud costs in real time, reducing cloud spend by 15% through reserved commitments and idle-resource elimination. I build Power BI dashboards and Python pipelines for cost visibility, allocation, tagging, reporting, budget monitoring, and anomaly detection.
Previously, I led Cloud FinOps at Dayforce, where I reduced cloud spend by 25% through rightsizing, commitment optimization, tagging standards, and idle-resource management. I also built a cloud economics tool that helped Sales and Infrastructure teams estimate per-customer cloud costs for pricing, capacity planning, and forecasting.
My background spans VMware CloudHealth adoption, enterprise customer management, technical pre-sales, and cloud delivery at Infosys across OCI, AWS, and Azure. I bring hands-on experience with FinOps, Terraform, Power BI, Python, Kubernetes, and cross-functional delivery with finance, infrastructure, architecture, business, and vendor teams.
