Tasks

As a ServiceNow Solution Architect, you will be a key technical driver in our offshore team.

You will be responsible for both architectural decisions and hands-on development. Design and develop complex ServiceNow solutions with a focus on ITOM, CMDB, and CSDM 5.0 alignment.

Project Leadership & Autonomy

• Lead and execute Discovery configurations and troubleshooting (patterns, MID Server, credentials, probes/sensors)
• Architect and maintain a healthy, well-structured CMDB including IRE, normalization, deduplication, and CMDB Health dashboards
• Implement and govern CSDM 5.0 data models — mapping Business Services, Technical Services, Application Services, and supporting CIs
• Configure and extend NowAssist (AI features) including Now Intelligence, Predictive Intelligence, and Virtual Agent flows
• Develop advanced platform customizations: Business Rules, Script Includes, Client Scripts, UI Policies, Flow Designer, and REST/SOAP integrations
