  • Enable automated assessments, continuous control monitoring, risk indicators, attestations and evidence collection wherever appropriate.
  • Ensure security, privacy, segregation of duties, confidential-record handling, data quality and auditability are embedded within solution designs.
  • Support projects through architecture review, design assurance, testing, deployment and mandatory governance processes.
  • Troubleshoot complex cross-module and integration issues and guide teams towards sustainable resolutions.
  • Shape the ServiceNow IRM roadmap, standards and reusable patterns, remaining current with product releases and recognized risk and compliance practices.
  • Mentor architects and delivery colleagues and contribute to continuous improvement across the ServiceNow architecture practice.
