Job Summary
Cloud Cost Utilization SRE at GitLab designs and maintains tagging and labeling strategies across AWS/GCP to support accurate cost attribution, builds tooling to ingest, normalize, and report cloud billing data per the FOCUS specification, and automates cost anomaly detection and forecasting. You will contribute to observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Tempo, Mimir, ELK) to surface cost efficiency signals, collaborate with Finance and Engineering leadership on cost forecasting and budgeting, and act as a subject-matter expert for cloud cost attribution and tagging. This role leverages infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Ansible) and requires effective cross-functional collaboration in a fully remote, asynchronous environment.

- Familiarity with observability tooling, including Grafana, and an understanding of how reliability and cost signals can be connected
- Ability to explain technical cost data clearly to non-engineering audiences and support informed decision-making
- A self-directed approach to work, with comfort operating in a fully remote and asynchronous environment
- Ability to design and maintain cost visibility, forecasting, and reporting for planning and budgeting
