- Access and analyse logging data using cloud-native tools to identify key cost drivers
- Build and deploy automation for logging and storage cost optimisation at enterprise scale
- Implement approved optimisation changes using Infrastructure as Code and automated deployment pipelines
- Prepare rollback plans and conduct post-change validation
- Produce optimisation proposals, savings forecasts, and business cases with clear assumptions
- Improve tagging, labelling, allocation, chargeback, and showback models
- Define and maintain cloud cost policies, guardrails, retention standards, quotas, and budget alerts
- Run optimisation sessions with platform, application, and engineering teams
- Present technical findings and recommendations to senior engineering stakeholders
- Prepare executive-level cost reports covering trends, forecasts, actual savings, and risks
- Create runbooks, technical controls, and supporting documentation
- Monitor cost regression and implement automated drift detection
- Ensure implemented changes comply with governance, risk, and change management requirements
