Series A–C startups and SaaS enterprises shocked by monthly AWS or Google Cloud bills frequently search to hire a freelance AWS & GCP Cloud FinOps & infrastructure cost reduction programmer. I am Aldian Fazrihady, a Senior Freelance Cloud Architect and Full Stack Programmer available via Upwork.
Core Cloud FinOps & AWS/GCP Cost Optimization Capabilities
- NAT Gateway, Public IPv4 & Data Egress Pruning: Eliminating hidden AWS bandwidth and public IPv4 ($0.005/hr per IP) waste via VPC Gateway Endpoints (S3/DynamoDB), dynamic ALB subnet pruning, and Cloudflare R2 / CDN caching.
- Serverless & Container Right-Sizing: Migrating underutilized 24/7 EC2/RDS clusters to auto-scaling Google Cloud Run, AWS ECS Fargate Spot, Graviton4 ARM64 instances, and serverless PostgreSQL.
- LLM & Vector Database Cost Optimization: Implementing Redis semantic prompt caching, OpenAI/Anthropic Batch APIs (50% discount), tiered model routing (`gpt-4o-mini` / `gemini-2.5-flash` vs frontier reasoning models), and `pgvector` HNSW scalar quantization.
