Technology is an economic decision.
I help you design architectures, cloud setups and vendor deals that make sense
on the balance sheet — not just on the whiteboard.
FinOps strategy, cloud cost reviews, and contract negotiation with hyperscalers and SaaS vendors. I've managed multi-million tooling budgets and delivered sustained six-figure annual savings — I know where the money hides in your cloud bill and your contracts.
Request a Cost ReviewIndependent evaluation of platforms, architectures and build-vs-buy decisions. No vendor affiliations, no reseller incentives — just an honest assessment of what your technology choices will cost and deliver over time.
Discuss Your DecisionFractional advisory for founders and small IT & B2B firms: budgets, vendor landscape, security posture, team and technology planning. Former CIO, current platform leader — I've built and run the function you're trying to set up.
Book a Mentoring SessionSven Lutz — 20+ years in technology, from hands-on software engineering to enterprise platform leadership.
I currently lead platform engineering and cloud infrastructure at a leading European automotive technology company, with responsibility for a multi-million euro tooling portfolio, FinOps practice, and vendor relationships at enterprise scale. Before that: seven years as CIO of a mid-sized company, and two decades of building software for the web.
That combination — I've written the code, run the budgets, and sat across the table from AWS, Azure and enterprise SaaS vendors — is what I bring to every engagement.
Focus areas: FinOps & cloud cost optimization · Cloud & SaaS contract negotiation · Platform & architecture strategy · Internal developer platforms · IT planning for B2B companies
