· Integrate generative AI capabilities (e.g., Now Assist for ITSM, HRSD, CSM) with existing SNOW modules, flows, and virtual agents.

· Identify automation opportunities within ITSM, HRSD, CSM, and other SNOW modules and implement AI-assisted solutions to reduce manual effort.

· Stay current with ServiceNow AI roadmap updates, Now Assist releases, and emerging large language model (LLM) best practices.

· Support testing and QA of AI-generated outputs; triage and resolve prompt-related defects in pre-production and production environments.

· Document prompt engineering standards, guidelines, and internal best practices to support knowledge transfer and team enablement.

Required Qualifications

· 3+ years of hands-on experience with the ServiceNow platform (administration, development, or architecture).

· Demonstrated experience with ServiceNow Now Assist, Virtual Agent, or AI Search capabilities.

· Strong understanding of prompt engineering principles for large language models (e.g., GPT-4, Azure OpenAI, or similar).

· Proficiency with ServiceNow scripting (JavaScript/GlideScript), Flow Designer, and Integration Hub.

· Experience working in ITSM, HRSD, or CSM modules within ServiceNow.

· Ability to evaluate prompt output quality, identify failure modes, and refine iteratively.

· Strong written and verbal communication skills; ability to work cross-functionally with technical and non-technical teams.

· Must be based in North America (US or Canada) and available to work during North American business hours.

Preferred Qualifications

· ServiceNow Certified System Administrator (CSA) or Certified Application Developer (CAD).

· Familiarity with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) patterns and enterprise AI governance frameworks.
