Rishabh Maheshwari

I’m a Cloud Engineer with 3.9 years of experience driving cloud cost optimization and FinOps practices across large-scale AWS environments. I focus on turning billing signals into actionable recommendations that teams can implement quickly.

I’ve applied FinOps best practices to analyze cloud spend, cost allocation, and tagging hygiene across multi-account AWS environments. I built Python automation for cost reporting and operational workflows, reducing manual effort by approximately 80%.

My work delivered approximately 25% AWS cost reduction through rightsizing, S3 lifecycle policies, and usage anomaly detection. I evaluate On-Demand usage, Reserved Instances, and Savings Plans to propose optimization strategies, backed by detailed usage and cost reports.

I also design and operate serverless and containerized systems using AWS Lambda, API Gateway, ECS, S3, CloudFront, Route 53, and CloudFormation. I collaborate across Cloud, Platform, DevOps, and Security teams to implement approved changes while improving monitoring efficiency with CloudWatch and event-driven patterns.
