Job description

Why You’ll Love Softchoice

We are a software-focused IT solutions and services provider that equips organizations to be agile and innovative, and for their people to be engaged, connected, and creative at work. That means moving them to the cloud, helping them build the workplace of tomorrow, and enabling them to make smarter decisions about their technology. By doing these things we help them create success for their customers and their people.

We stand proudly for our people and support their success through career development and advancement. We are recognized and respected for our culture of inclusion and belonging, continuously striving to do what’s good for our people and communities.

The Impact You Will Have

Softchoice is seeking a Cloud FinOps Architect to expand its Financial Operations (FinOps) and Cloud Economics capabilities. You will support and manage client engagements advising at the highest strategic level with big-picture thinking and tactical guidance on how FinOps enables cloud cost governance and business benefits realization. You must possess financial, technical, and creative thinking capabilities. You will need to be ambitious, innovative, and personable, possessing outstanding leadership qualities in working with our customers.

This role guides customers through three elements of FinOps – Inform, Optimize, and Operate so that customers can continue to iterate on their own over time. The Architect connects clients to unique perspectives, industry frameworks, and transformative thinking that inspires them to drive the culture of the FinOps capabilities of their business together with Softchoice and the Softchoice partner ecosystem. You will co‑create, accelerate, and drive adoption toward optimizing what the client spends and what they use in the public cloud based on customer knowledge and empathy.

What You’ll Do

  • Be an active contributor and play a key role in the end‑to‑end client engagement – driving awareness, understanding current capabilities, and advancing future outcomes. This involves all business value chain activities, from procurement, finance, cloud engineering, line of business, and executives addressing their needs and valued outcomes.
  • Develop expertise in the capabilities of FinOps technology platforms such as CloudHealth, Cloudability, and Flexera. Connect and align with other Softchoice services and solutions contributors and leaders to drive additional support for our clients and their needs.
  • Facilitate and contribute to service engagements by conducting customer interviews.
  • Lead and conduct workshops and working sessions and create customer presentations and deliverables.
  • See the big picture with the ability to start small and guide customers through various lenses of strategic, technical, and business benefits of instilling FinOps cultural understanding to continue their innovation independently.

What You’ll Bring To The Table

  • Minimum 2 years experience in IT Finance or consulting in Cloud Advisory & IT Strategy Services
  • Currently hold or become certified as a FinOps practitioner within 3 months of starting the role and the FinOps platform (such as CloudHealth)
  • Strong consultative experience within the different domains that make up IT Finance and Public Cloud Consumption
  • Results‑driven and goal‑oriented
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills
  • Demonstrated, applied experience establishing and delivering advanced workshops, supporting custom projects and holding customer conversations and engagement across engineering, finance, production, and product ownership teams
  • Collecting and interpreting cloud data sets to identify trends, patterns, and actionable insights, to then communicate findings through customer meetings
  • Passion for presenting, training, teaching, and mentoring customers to establish, build, mature, and ultimately become self‑sustaining in their own FinOps practice over time.
  • Pay Range

    The typical pay range for this role in Ontario is $130,000 - $140,000. Note : the pay range represents the full pay range for this position. Each individual offer will take into consideration a range of factors, including prior experience and geographic location. In addition to the base salary, this role is eligible for additional elements of compensation including cell allowances, annual bonus, or commissions etc., as well as a comprehensive benefits plan.
