FinOps Specialist

At Supercell, our cloud infrastructure powers games played by hundreds of millions of monthly players. To keep our cloud operations scalable, efficient and cost-effective, we are looking for a FinOps Specialist to take ownership of our Cloud financials.

You’ll help us understand, optimize, and forecast cloud spend—working at the intersection of engineering, finance, business and cloud vendors. Your insights will drive smarter decision-making, balancing performance, scalability, and cost-efficiency in our cloud environments. If navigating the business and technical realms of the cloud excites you as much as gaming does, this role could be a perfect fit!

As a FinOps Specialist, you’ll take ownership of tracking cloud expenditures, forecasting costs, and identifying opportunities for optimisation. You’ll work with cost data—analyzing it, visualizing it, and turning it into dashboards, reports, tools and insights that support our teams. You’ll collaborate with internal teams to promote cost transparency and cloud efficiency while working directly with cloud providers in everything from regular cadence calls to large contract negotiations. This role offers a chance to make a tangible impact across our business, balancing innovation with fiscal responsibility.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Work closely with with Game, Tech, Finance and Business teams to ensure efficient cloud usage and cost transparency

• Monitor and analyse cloud costs across multiple providers (e.g., AWS, Google Cloud, Tencent Cloud)

• Build dashboards, alerts and tools to help understand and optimize cloud usage for technical and non-technical audiences

• Identify and implement cloud cost optimization strategies, such as utilising commitment-based discounts, rightsizing and removing idle resources

• Participate in managing vendor relationships, negotiating contracts, and collaboration to ensure we’re getting the best value from our cloud providers

• Enhance our cost allocation methods to provide the company and teams a clear view of cloud expenses

• Provide financial forecasting for cloud usage for company and team-level forecasts

• Check and approve invoices, ensuring correct billed amounts and cost allocation

What You Have

• 3+ years of experience in financial analysis, cloud operations or a comparable role

• Past experience in vendor management and negotiating contracts

• Experience with building dashboards in Business Intelligence tools such as Tableau

• Proficient in querying data with SQL

• Strong analytical and financial modelling skills, with the ability to turn data into actionable insights

• Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively across cross-functional teams

• A knack for prioritizing tasks in a fast-paced environment

Would Be Nice if You Also Had

• Familiarity with cloud platforms and their diverse pricing models (e.g., AWS, Google Cloud, Tencent Cloud)

• Certification in AWS Cloud Practitioner, Google Cloud Digital Leader or equivalent work experience

• Familiarity with FinOps principles and best practices

• Experience in managing large cloud budgets and driving cost optimization initiatives.

About Supercell

Supercell is a games company from Helsinki, Finland, with offices also in San Francisco, Seoul, Shanghai, and London. You might know us as the makers of Hay Day, Clash of Clans, Boom Beach, Clash Royale, Brawl Stars, and Squad Busters. Our mission is to create great games that as many people as possible play for years and that are remembered forever.

So, how do we make great games? By putting together the best teams and giving them the freedom and independence to succeed. And by taking risks, failing, sharing learnings, and killing lots of projects.

Hey, You Might Love It Here!

Independent cells and trust are at the core of our culture. But it takes more than that to make great games. We take good care of our people, providing them with the compensation, work environment, and resources they need to succeed while having fun along the way.

You Are Not Your Job Title ™

Here, you won’t need to focus on chasing titles or climbing ladders. Internally, our job titles don’t include prefixes like Senior, Junior, Principal, or Director. Recognition isn’t tied to your title, as it doesn't define the impact you can have around here.

Benefits and Compensation

Luring you in with glitter, glamour, and gems isn't what we're about. We want you to enjoy your time here fully, so we structure our compensation and benefits with that in mind. It starts with perceiving you as a human being, not a resource.

Relocation? Yes!

No matter where you’re moving from, our dedicated mobility team and partners will support you throughout your move. We’ll ensure the process is as smooth as possible for you and anyone joining you – whether they’re family members of the human or animal kind!

Not Sure if You Should Apply?

Many candidates with great skills and experience second-guess themselves. The bar is high, but if this role excites you, apply! We’re here to help you succeed. Also, we're happy to learn about any specific accommodations you may need to fully engage in our recruitment process.

Wishing you all the best,
The Supercell Recruitment team
