Establish and enforce engineering standards (patterns, reusable components, security guardrails, logging/telemetry expectations, review practices). Provide design and architecture leadership across evolving products, integrations, and core platform capabilities, ensuring solutions scale and remain upgradable. Lead platform modernization programs end-to-end, including deprecation replacements and removal of legacy patterns/customizations. Document, manage, and govern customizations across the platform; customization risk, tradeoffs, and supportability impacts; and support steering partners in making informed decisions. Carry this forward into roadmap advisory, upgrade planning, and ongoing platform health work. Represent the business capabilities enabled by the platform and connect those capabilities to institutional goals, value, and strategy to guide prioritization and solution design. Provide architectural controls to ensure the correct technical solutions are used when delivering business outcomes, including reviewing developer designs and approaches, recommending platform-aligned patterns, and enforcing guardrails that keep solutions secure, scalable, and upgradeable. Proactively identify upcoming platform changes (deprecated APIs/features, new platform behaviors), assess impact, and create a sequenced remediation plan Own deprecations and migrations from inception to maintenance: introduce upcoming change to product owners, identify impacted groups, coordinate change management activities, update/run testing, ensure inclusion in upgrade preview, and validate post-release outcomes. Operate a platform health program: monitor, report, and improve platform health, performance, usage, and compliance using platform tooling and analytics. Ensure upgrades are predictable and low risk by maintaining remediation quality standards: regression strategy, upgrade preview readiness, automated test coverage, and mitigation planning. Provide advanced troubleshooting, bug fixes, and root cause analysis; guide preventative automation to reduce recurrence and operational toil. Evaluate and promote the value proposition of both adopted and latest ServiceNow products/capabilities, translating platform options into outcomes, tradeoffs, and investment recommendations. Partner with ServiceNow and other vendor/implementation partners to plan and execute discovery efforts (workshops, requirements discovery, solution shaping, and proof-of-concept validation), ensuring outcomes are actionable and aligned to SNHU standards, roadmap, and operability expectations. Document and maintain policies, procedures, and controls for operating the ServiceNow platform and its SDLC. Design, prototype, implement, test, and deploy technical solutions (business rules, client/server scripting, UI policies/actions/pages, scheduled jobs, import/transform, ACLs, notifications, flows as appropriate). Improve delivery reliability through repeatable automation, standardized release practices, and clear "definition of done" expectations (including testing and documentation). Design and support integrations (SSO, CMDB/data sources, SaaS connectors) and integrate legacy systems with ServiceNow using MID Server, APIs, web services, email, chat, and other relevant technologies. Support existing and custom applications within ServiceNow, including integration lifecycle ownership (monitoring, error handling, retry logic, and operational support). Partner with process owners to translate our needs into solutions while reducing variation, eliminating waste, and promoting platform-patterns. Mentor fellow technical resources and ecosystem partners; provide informal coaching and direction while raising overall engineering maturity.

Be a senior escalation point for incident/ticket resolution and problem remediation and participate in on-call rotation as an escalation point. Use AI-assisted tooling responsibly to accelerate analysis, documentation, and development while observing SNHU's evolving guidance and maintaining rigorous security, privacy, and human review standards.
