About the role

The Business  Technology Workflows is the largest business at ServiceNow – and its core.  We build the products that run the technology estate— Service Management (Incident/Problem/Change), Operations Management (Discovery, Service Mapping, Event Management, etc.), the Configuration Management Database (CMDB), Asset Management, and Portfolio Management. Our customers use us to gain visibility of their technology estate, understand how it connects and performs, and act on it.  As AI moves from helping people work to acting on systems directly, the accuracy and reach of that picture becomes the limit on everything built above it. That puts the Technology Workflows business at the center of the company’s agentic strategy.  The Role  This is a senior individual contributor role and the strategy partner to the SVP of Technology Workflows and the General Managers and Product Leaders of each business unit.   You will not run a product line directly, nor will not have a team reporting directly to you.  Your work and impact come through the ability to partner and influence.  You will decide what this business should believe about where its market is going, be the key identifier of technological shifts and trends, and understand the current and future competitive landscape.  You will synthesize your findings with evidence and turn it into artifacts that help set long-term roadmap direction, budget allocations, staffing decisions, pricing, partnerships, and acquisitions.  You will interact with the ServiceNow Ventures team to help identify and assess sectors and individual companies for investment, with the Corporate Development team to create M&A chess boards and evaluate acquisition targets, and with the Corporate Strategy team to develop ServiceNow’s overall strategic posture.  Key to this role is a understanding of both business and deep technical constructs.  Technology Workflows is the most technical product group at ServiceNow and success in this role requires understanding how technical estates are run and the constantly changing stack used by practitioners.  If you want a defined product area and a team to build it, this is the wrong role. If you want to set the direction of a business at this scale without the machinery of owning it, few seats give you this much reach.  What you get to do in this role  • Own and defend the multi-year strategic position for Technology Workflows, and keep it current as the AI landscape moves. Produce the written arguments and pre-reads that leadership actually decides from.  • Set market sizing and category definition for the business, including where the current and future addressable market genuinely is rather than where the analyst taxonomy says it is.  • Shape pricing and packaging strategy across the portfolio, including the shift of consumption-based products toward outcome-based models, in partnership with product managers, pricing, finance, and the platform packaging teams.  • Own inorganic strategy for the business: source and evaluate acquisition, acquihire, and partnership candidates across the Technology Workflows portfolio.  Form a technical point of view, convene product and engineering diligence, and hand corporate development and Technology Workflows leadership a recommendation with a thesis attached.  • Build and maintain the partner and ecosystem framework—which partners matter, why, and how each one fits—across multiple categories such as observability, endpoint, operational technology, and systems integrator relationships.  • Represent the business in executive and customer forums, including the CIO Product Advisory Council, the annual strategy cycle, and the twelve-month product roadmap review. Write the content, present it live, and carry the commitments it creates.  • Ma
