Job description

ServiceNow Technical Architect - H2R / S2P

Experience: 10+ years

Role: ServiceNow Technical Architect / Technical Authority

Role Overview

We are looking for a Senior ServiceNow Technical Architect with strong hands-on ServiceNow expertise combined with a solid understanding of end-to-end enterprise business processes, particularly Hire-to-Retire (H2R) and Source-to-Pay (S2P).

The successful candidate will act as a Technical / Coding Authority, owning solution architecture, technical governance, design standards, code quality and integration architecture across the ServiceNow platform.

This role requires someone who can bridge the gap between business process and technology - understanding what the business is trying to achieve, translating those requirements into scalable ServiceNow solutions, and providing strong technical direction to development and implementation teams.

Experience with ServiceNow Now Assist, Generative AI and AI capabilities is highly desirable, but is not mandatory.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead architecture discussions, technical design reviews and solution governance.
• Provide technical direction to ServiceNow developers, technical leads and implementation partners.
• Demonstrate a strong understanding of the Hire-to-Retire business process and employee lifecycle.
• Understand processes across onboarding, employee services, lifecycle management, access provisioning, transfers, offboarding and retirement.
• Translate H2R business requirements into ServiceNow workflows, automation, integrations and applications.
• Understand the interaction between ServiceNow HR processes and enterprise systems such as HRIS, identity/access management and ERP platforms.
• Identify opportunities to simplify, standardize and automate H2R processes.

S2P - Source-to-Pay

• Demonstrate a strong understanding of the Source-to-Pay / procurement lifecycle.
• Understand processes covering sourcing, supplier management, requisition, purchasing, approvals, purchase orders, invoicing and payment.
• Translate S2P requirements into ServiceNow workflows, integrations and automation.
• Understand integrations between ServiceNow, procurement platforms, ERP, finance and supplier systems.
• Identify opportunities for process optimization and automation across the S2P lifecycle.

Coding / Technical Authority

• Act as the Coding and Technical Authority for ServiceNow development.
• Establish and enforce coding standards, architecture principles and development guidelines.
• Conduct code reviews and technical design reviews.
• Ensure development follows ServiceNow best practices and minimizes unnecessary customization.
• Review technical solutions for performance, security, scalability and upgradeability.
