Solution Architect

About the role

ServiceNow is seeking a driven CRM Architect Director to serve a dual mandate: leading hands-on customer delivery engagements and partnering with our sales organization on pre-sales solutioning and scoping.

This is a rare opportunity for an architect who thrives both in the field and in front of prospects.
