ITOM Solution Architect

ServiceNow is moving from a workflow platform with AI features to an AI platform where agents do the work. That shift depends entirely on whether the operational data underneath it can be trusted which is the problem this role owns. 

The ITOM Solution Architect designs and leads technical delivery of ServiceNow ITOM solutions across CMDB and service data foundations Discovery Service Mapping ITOM Health event intelligence and service observability and increasingly designs the agentic layer built on top of them. The role moves fluidly between deep technical design and executive advisory with the judgement to give customers evidence-based assessments of their operational maturity rather than aspirational ones. 
 

What youll do: 

Architect the data foundation 

• Own ITOM architecture: Discovery Service Graph Connectors Agent Client Collector CMDB/CSDM design IRE and reconciliation and Service Mapping strategy 
• Design and data foundations AI-ready and trustworthy 
• Design sustainable data population architecture including MID Server and collection topologies that hold up under real enterprise network and security constraints 

Design the event intelligence and observability layer 

• Architect ITOM Health and Service Observability with SLO-based Service Reliability Management as one signal-to-service model 
• Integrate existing monitoring estates (for example Dynatrace Datadog SolarWinds Splunk) 
• Define operational success: noise reduction alert-to-CI coverage MTTR and service health accuracy 

Design and govern the agentic layer 

• Design where ServiceNow Otto and AI agents fit operationally including alert triage detecting and correcting CMDB issues and autonomous SLO creation 
• Build custom agentic workflows in AI Agent Studio where out-of-box coverage stops 
• Build guardrails before automation especially in regulated environments 

Advise and lead 

• Give honest current-state assessments including telling customers when they are not ready for the use case they came in asking for 
• Translate architecture into business outcomes for CIOs and infrastructure leaders: risk cost and toil avoided 
• Flag integration data-quality and scalability risk before it hits delivery 
• Keep architecture consistent with engagement managers technical consultants and platform architects 
• Support pre-sales scoping with realistic effort and sequencing 
• Contribute reusable IP to the practice and mentor consultants toward architect capability 
• Advise on release cadence and upgrade sequencing as part of architecture not an afterthought 
   

Why join us
