- Drive governance and compliance initiatives: Transform tools (e.g., API Governance) into ServiceNow with approval workflows, user-friendly interfaces, and self-service portals for onboarding and attestation of internal/external partners.
- Enhance automation, CI/CD, security, and reliability across ServiceNow and aligned platforms; promote best practices for API-related tables, workflows, and lifecycle management.
- Conduct in-depth troubleshooting and RCAs: Analyze complex issues in ServiceNow integrations, APIs, and cross-system interactions; derive insights and implement post-incident improvements to M&P, enhanced alerting, or architectural enhancements.
- Provide technical guidance and mentorship: Lead development teams with hands-on involvement, collaborate with stakeholders, and communicate progress/strategies to leadership and cross-functional teams.
- Support platform modernizations: Lead targeted updates, migrations, and optimizations in ServiceNow, aligning with broader efforts in legacy APIs, messaging (e.g., Kafka), and data transformations.
- Ongoing maintenance and innovation: Provide support, updates, and evaluations of emerging trends (e.g., AI-assisted workflows) to drive organizational impact through intuitive UIs and efficient processes.
What You'll Bring:
- Hands-on proficiency in ServiceNow technologies: Designing and developing scoped applications, catalog items, workflows, tables, and integrations—must be able to dive into configuration, scripting, and implementation in real-time.

- Strong expertise in API development and integration: Lifecycle management, governance, compliance, and tools like Kafka for data ingestion; experience with third-party systems (e.g., Akamai Noname, CMDB)
- Architectural skills in modernizations: Leading transformations (e.g., governance tools to ServiceNow) with direct involvement in design and hands-on execution.
- Familiarity with automation and DevOps: CI/CD integration, scripting, and optimizing for efficiency in ServiceNow environments.
- Bachelor's or Master’s degree in computer science, Computer Engineering, Information Systems, or a related technical field (or equivalent experience).
- 10+ years in software architecture and development, with a focus on ServiceNow app development, integrations, and platform management in cloud/hybrid environments.
