Summary

Title: ServiceNow Engineering Lead

Location: Jacksonville, FL / onsite
Direct Hire


Salary: $120k + 10% bonus + benefits

Overview
  • We are seeking a ServiceNow Engineering Lead to own and evolve a mission-critical specialty claims platform built on top of ServiceNow.
  • This role is designed for an engineering lead with deep platform, integration, and data experience, not a traditional ServiceNow administrator.
  • The claims platform is heavily customized and supports high-volume transactional processing, complex workflows, and deep integrations across policy administration, financial systems, and enterprise data platforms.
  • ServiceNow CSM, App Engine, and Integration Hub are used as development and orchestration tools, not out-of-the-box solutions.
  • The role partners closely with product management and business leaders on roadmap and backlog and leads delivery through a combination of internal engineers and a Software Integrator (SI).

Key Responsibilities:

Platform Architecture & Engineering Ownership
  • Own the end-to-end architecture of a highly customized ServiceNow-based claims platform supporting specialty insurance programs.
  • Lead the design and evolution of claims data models, workflows, and automation, ensuring scalability, maintainability, and transaction integrity.
  • Use ServiceNow CSM and App Engine as an extensible platform to implement complex, non-standard claims capabilities.
  • Establish and enforce engineering standards, customization guidelines, and architectural patterns across the platform.
  • Make architectural tradeoffs balancing customization, performance, maintainability, and long-term platform health in a regulated environment.

Hands-On Role
  • Act as a hands-on engineering lead capable of authoring, reviewing, and governing custom ServiceNow code (JavaScript, Script Includes, Business Rules, UI logic).
  • Review and approve technical designs, ensuring consistency with platform standards and architectural vision.
  • Drive reuse through shared components, frameworks, and patterns rather than one-off implementations.
  • Own enterprise integrations using ServiceNow Integration Hub, including custom actions and orchestration flows.
  • Design and govern both real-time transactional integrations and batch-based data pipelines.
  • Lead integration with:
  • Ensure integrations meet expectations for transaction integrity, auditability, and operational resilience common in financial services platforms.
    • Policy administration systems
    • Financial and accounting platforms
    • Enterprise data warehouse and analytics platforms
  • Apply strong understanding of enterprise integration patterns, including:
    • Event-driven architectures
    • Synchronous vs. asynchronous processing
    • Data consistency and reliability strategies across distributed systems

SDLC, Production Support & Operational Excellence
  • Own the ServiceNow SDLC, including environment strategy, release management, testing, and deployment practices.
  • Define and operate the production support model for a mission-critical claims platform.
  • Partner with operations, DevOps, and infrastructure teams on monitoring, incident response, root cause analysis, and continuous improvement.
  • Ensure platform reliability, availability, performance, and operational readiness at scale.

Required Qualifications:
  • 6+ years of software engineering experience, including hands-on platform or enterprise system development.
  • Proven experience leading heavily customized ServiceNow environments with extensive scripted solutions.
  • Demonstrated experience delivering custom-built platforms on top of ServiceNow, using CSM, App Engine, and Integration Hub as implementation tools.
  • Strong experience designing and operating enterprise integration patterns, including event-driven systems, synchronous APIs, batch data pipelines, and distributed data consistency.
  • Experience owning platform SDLC, production support, and technical standards.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to lead both engineers and integrator teams.
  • Financial services experience strongly preferred
