Reports To Technical Lead

Employment Type Full-time

Domain Preference Healthcare and Life Sciences (HCLS)

Role Summary
We are building a ServiceNow practice and need developers who do the build work well. You will configure and develop on the platform to designs set by the Technical Lead and Architect, own your deliverables end to end, and be accountable for the quality of what you ship.
This is a hands-on build role with a clear path into technical leadership. Healthcare and Life Sciences exposure is preferred but not required at this level.

Key Responsibilities
Build and Configuration
Configure and develop on the platform: forms, workflows, business rules, script includes, client scripts, UI policies, and UI actions.
Build automations in Flow Designer and connect systems using IntegrationHub spokes.
Develop scoped applications to the design and standards set by the Technical Lead.
Build and maintain integrations over REST and SOAP, including inbound and outbound web services, import sets, and transform maps.

Create and maintain Service Portal widgets, catalog items, record producers, and order guides.
Quality and Delivery
Write and maintain tests in the Automated Test Framework, and fix defects raised in SIT and UAT.

Follow the team coding standards, peer review process, and update set or application repository discipline.
Estimate your own work, report status honestly, and raise blockers early rather than late.
Document what you build so the next person can maintain it without asking you.
Collaboration
Work with Business Analysts to close gaps in requirements before the build starts.
Participate in stand-ups, sprint planning, demos, and retrospectives.
Support production deployments and post go-live hypercare.
