Samba TV tracks streaming and broadcast video across the world with our proprietary data and technology. We are on a mission to fundamentally transform the viewing experience for everyone. Our data enables media companies to connect with audiences for new shows and movies, and enables advertisers to engage viewers and measure reach across all their devices. We have an amazing story with a unique perspective on culture formed by a global footprint of data and AI-driven insights.

We are seeking a lead FinOps engineer to join our Internal Measurement team and help us establish and
lead a formal FinOps practice. You will help in designing, building, and implementing a comprehensive
cloud cost management framework covering cost optimization, attribution, forecasting, and governance.

In this role, you will directly influence our bottom line by managing costs incurred by our significant
cloud footprint across both AWS and GCP including attribution of that spend back to specific products
and business initiatives. This financial visibility is critical for empowering our engineering and product
teams to innovate efficiently and sustainably. This is your chance to shape Samba TV's cloud future and
embed a culture of cost-consciousness and discipline across the organization.

WHAT WILL YOU DO

  • Develop, communicate, and drive cloud cost initiatives across our organization.
  • Create tools and dashboards that provide stakeholders in Product, Engineering, and Finance with visibility and actionable insights into their cloud spend.
  • Identify and analyze the key drivers of cloud costs and report findings to budget owners.
  • Build and maintain models for cloud cost forecasting, spend anomaly detection, and cost attribution.
  • Manage our employment of AWS Savings Plans or GCP Committed-Use Discounts.

WHO YOU ARE

  • Extensive experience navigating the cost and billing systems of AWS or GCP. Must have a proven track record of diving into CURs or GCP Billing Reports to drive resource optimization and financial accountability.
  • Must be knowledgeable in the area of FinOps and able to put its principles into practice.
  • Must be able to write code with a proven ability to develop internal tools and automation to manage cloud resources programmatically. While Python is our primary language, we value a strong command of any modern language used for cloud automation and API integration.
  • Must be proficient in SQL and able to dig deeply into cost/usage reports, as well as other cost-relevant activity logs.
  • Experience with Terraform and cloud-based Kubernetes (EKS, GKE) is desirable.
  • Familiarity with cost aspects of Databricks and Snowflake is desirable.

What We Do

Television remains a vibrant cultural influence and an essential source of entertainment and information worldwide. Tremendous growth in content choices, and viewing platforms that allow us to watch anything, anytime, on any screen, has actually made it harder for viewers to discover and keep up with all the great programming available. It’s also more competitive for content providers to keep your attention, and for marketers to make strong, measurable connections with their target consumers.
Technology that improves the viewing experience, enables content discovery, and addresses audience fragmentation across screens will strengthen television’s business model and relevance to consumers. Data is at the center of any solution to make TV better.
Samba TV's technology is built into Smart TVs and easily maps to smart phones and tablets. By recognizing what's on screen, Samba TV learns what viewers like and using machine learning algorithms, enables discovery of shows and actors in a whole new way. Likewise, our data and measurement products are transforming the way stakeholders across the media landscape are thinking about their business. Given the dramatic growth in streaming services, connected devices, time-shifting, and multi-screen viewership, our data products solve real problems and create a meaningful competitive advantage for our clients.
