ServiceNow is seeking a Partner Technical Advisor to serve as the primary strategic interface for our Global and Strategic Regional partners. In this role, you will drive holistic partner growth through pre-sales technical excellence, business development, solution strategy, and AI-first technology adoption. You will combine trusted advisory relationships with partner executives, industry-aligned solution architecture, and go-to-market leadership into a single accountable role — translating platform capabilities, AI innovation, and industry context into repeatable, outcome-driven offerings that partners can build, scale, and monetize.
While this role expands into strategic business development and co-innovation, pre-sales technical excellence remains the primary operational foundation — including technical discovery, solution demonstrations, proof-of-concept leadership, and architectural validation that accelerates partner-led customer engagements.
As a Partner Technical Advisor, you will serve as the dedicated strategic counterpart for assigned partner organizations, owning the full spectrum from pre-sales technical engagement through strategic co-innovation and business growth advisory.
- Serve as the primary strategic interface for assigned partners, building trusted relationships with partner executives and practice leaders.
- Lead joint business planning to align partner investments, industry focus, and go-to-market priorities across all routes to market.
- Advise partners on practice growth, specialization strategy, and readiness for AI-enabled offerings.
- Influence partner-sourced and partner-influenced pipeline through offer-led strategy and solution differentiation.
- Lead and support technical discovery sessions, executive briefings, and solution demonstrations that articulate platform value and accelerate partner-led deal velocity.
- Drive solution strategy, helping partners align offerings to high-value industry workflows and customer outcomes.
- Translate platform and AI capabilities into partner-differentiated, scalable solutions at the conceptual and architectural level.
- Maintain strong workflow fluency across enterprise domains including CRM, IT, Security, and Business Services.
- Design and execute partner-led proofs of concept and co-demonstrations that prove business value, technical feasibility, and competitive differentiation.
- Provide technical escalation support for critical partner-led opportunities, ensuring partners have access to deep expertise at key deal milestones.
- Champion AI-first solution design, including intelligent workflows, automation, and agent-based use cases.
- Orchestrate partner engagement with Partner Solution Architects and domain-specialist advisors (AI, CRM, Security & Risk) to accelerate solution development.
- Ensure partner offerings progress from concept through validation to scalable commercialization.
- Promote responsible, enterprise-ready AI adoption aligned to governance and trust standards.
- Connect solution strategy to measurable business outcomes including efficiency, growth, ROI, and time-to-value.
- Support executive-level conversations with clear value narratives and outcome-based storytelling.
- Coordinate across internal specialist teams to deliver a unified partner experience, not fragmented touchpoints.
- 5+ years of hands-on ServiceNow experience with strong workflow expertise across multiple products (e.g., ITSM, ITOM, SecOps, CSM, HRSD), including a track record of building partner pipeline and shaping co-sell motions grounded in a delivery perspective.
- 8+ years of experience in pre-sales solution consulting, partner strategy, or enterprise technology advisory, with proven success leading technical discovery, customer demonstrations, and partner engagements.
- Proven experience working directly with partners, system integrators, hyperscalers, or technology alliances.
- Strong executive presence with the ability to influence senior partner stakeholders at VP+ level.
- Demonstrated ability to connect business strategy, industry context, and technology solutions into actionable partner growth plans.
- Experience shaping or scaling partner practices, offerings, or go-to-market motions.
- Solid understanding of enterprise platforms and workflow-based solutions at the conceptual and architectural level.
- Working knowledge of AI-enabled use cases, automation patterns, and data-driven workflows.
- Deep familiarity with at least one industry vertical (e.g., Financial Services, Healthcare, Manufacturing, Public Sector).
- Experience in leveraging or critically thinking about how to integrate AI into work processes, decision-making, or problem-solving.
- Experience with ServiceNow platform and AI capabilities (Now Assist, AI Agents).
- Background in management consulting, strategy advisory, or partner business development.
- ServiceNow certifications (e.g., CSA, CIS, or architectural certifications).
- Experience across multiple partner routes to market (C&I, MSP, Reseller, Hyperscaler, Build).
- Familiarity with competitive platforms and ability to articulate ServiceNow differentiation.
