Orbit — cloud cost control

Role

Stack
TypeScript · BigQuery · Kubernetes · React
Outcome
Unallocated spend reduced from 31% to 4%; identified $1.2M in annual savings.
Finance received one cloud bill while engineering owned hundreds of services across several clusters. Unlabeled resources made team budgets unreliable, and cost spikes appeared weeks too late. Orbit joined billing exports with deployment metadata, allocated shared infrastructure, and alerted service owners when spend drifted from its baseline.
