This is a chance to influence enterprise architecture, modernize tooling, and lead ServiceNow-based solutions that support a more resilient and secure IT environment. You’ll join a culture that celebrates balance and empowers you with professional growth opportunities, mentorship, and involvement in strategic initiatives that shape the digital future.

Your Responsibilities

• You’ll define the CMDB vision, scope, and objectives to align with enterprise technology services and value streams.
• You’ll design, implement, and govern CMDB structures, processes, and lifecycle standards.
• You’ll oversee CMDB operations, including CI accuracy, relationship mapping, and lifecycle maintenance.
• You’ll lead and mentor CMDB team members while providing training and support to users across the organization.
• You’ll conduct configuration audits, lead remediation efforts, and support ITSM reporting needs.
• You’ll champion the CMDB as the single source of truth for ITSM and IT Operations.
• In this role, you’ll provide technical leadership for ServiceNow discovery, service mapping, and CI management.
• You’ll develop and maintain documentation for discovery processes, schedules, and procedures.
• You’ll collaborate closely with teams across ITIL practices, risk management, vendor management, and cybersecurity.

Skills and Qualifications

• 10+ years of progressive IT experience, including hands-on work with CMDB, discovery, and service mapping on the ServiceNow platform.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Technology, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
• Experience with asset and configuration management frameworks, processes, and governance.
• Strong technical knowledge of cloud and on-prem environments such as AWS, Azure, VMware, Windows, UNIX, and networking fundamentals.
• Hands-on experience troubleshooting discovery issues and managing data reconciliation workflows.
• Proficiency with ServiceNow discovery patterns and scripting (PowerShell, JavaScript).
• Knowledge of the Common Services Data Model, ITIL practices, and ServiceNow CSDM alignment.
• ServiceNow certifications (CSA, CIS) and ITIL 4 certification are strong assets.
