This team provides expertise in process design, data management, and increasingly, artificial intelligence. As AI capabilities advance, FinOps Strategic Enablement is strategically investing in resources to ensure our service teams can fully harness these tools. This role is pivotal to achieving that objective. WHAT YOU'LL DO We're seeking a FinOps Program Manager to act as a strategic catalyst for positive change.
