About the job
Senior DevOps Engineer – Remote Portugal!
Are you passionate about building reliable infrastructure while driving smarter cloud spending?
We’re partnering with one of Europe’s fastest-growing technology companies, a business that’s transforming how millions of people connect around the world through an innovative platform.
They’re looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer with strong FinOps experience to become the engineering owner of cloud cost optimisation across a large-scale Google Cloud environment.
This isn’t a traditional role. You’ll influence cloud strategy, work directly with Engineering and Finance leadership, build FinOps practices from the ground up, and help shape how engineering teams make cost-aware decisions without compromising reliability or performance.
If you enjoy solving complex infrastructure challenges, automating everything possible, and making a measurable business impact, this role offers genuine ownership, visibility, and long-term career growth.
What you’ll own
Drive cloud cost optimisation across GCP infrastructure.
Build dashboards and reporting using BigQuery, Billing exports, and Looker/Tableau.
Create budgets, alerts, and governance across GCP projects.
Optimise GKE, Cloud SQL, Cloud Run, compute, and storage workloads.
What we’re looking for
Strong experience as a Senior DevOps Engineer, with genuine hands-on exposure to cloud cost optimisation or FinOps practices.
Proven experience optimising cloud costs in large-scale environments.
Hands-on experience with Google Cloud Platform (AWS background is also welcome).
Strong Python scripting and automation skills.
Why join?
This is an opportunity to take ownership of cloud financial operations within a global technology business where your work will have a direct impact on engineering strategy and business performance.
You’ll join a collaborative, high-performing team, work on infrastructure supporting millions of users, and have the autonomy to implement new ideas while continuing to grow your career.
What’s on offer
Competitive salary and benefits package + Fully remote role within Portugal.
If you’re interested in learning more, I’d be happy to arrange a confidential conversation.
