DescriptionOVERVIEWiTech AG is seeking a ServiceNow FSM Practice Lead to establish and run the Field Service Management (FSM) practice within our Solutions organization. This is a senior player-coach role with a dual mandate: serve as the principal solution architect on the Intelas Next Generation Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) program - a commercial healthcare engagement delivered for Intelas (a Compass Group USA company) - while owning the technical direction, delivery standards, and reusable capability for FSM across iTech AG's entire portfolio of Field Service Management work.
The ideal candidate is a true ServiceNow architect who has implemented FSM end-to-end - from solution and data model design through dispatch, mobile, customer portals, parts/inventory, and integrations - and has since taken technical ownership across more than one engagement, directing and mentoring other architects and developers. They are equally credible in a client design workshop, in a pursuit shaping scope and level of effort, and hands-on in the platform building the hardest components. Experience in an asset-intensive field service setting is expected; healthcare, clinical/medical device (biomed/imaging), or CMMS/EAM depth is strongly preferred.
ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES - Serve as the technical owner of ServiceNow Field Service Management across all iTech AG FSM engagements - setting the solution standards, reference architectures, and design patterns that every FSM project follows
- Provide architectural quality assurance and delivery oversight across the FSM portfolio: design and code reviews, project health checks, and escalation support on at-risk engagements
- Build and maintain the practice's reusable assets - accelerators, scoped applications, integration patterns, demo environments, estimating models, and delivery playbooks - so each new FSM engagement starts further along
- Act as the FSM technical lead on business development pursuits: qualify opportunities, shape the solution, run technical discovery and client workshops, size level of effort and staffing, and contribute to proposals, orals, and client demonstrations
- Partner with Business Development and Solutions leadership on FSM offering development, go-to-market positioning, and capture strategy for field service and asset-intensive opportunities
- Set technical direction for FSM architects, developers, and consultants firm-wide in a matrixed model - defining skill and certification expectations, mentoring the team, and leading the technical evaluation of FSM candidates during hiring
- Advise on FSM staffing and resource allocation across engagements in partnership with sector delivery leads and the weekly resourcing process
- Own FSM enablement and capability growth - certification paths, training plans, and knowledge sharing across the broader ServiceNow team
- Track the ServiceNow FSM and EAM product roadmap and new release capabilities, and translate them into iTech AG offerings and client roadmaps
- Support the ServiceNow partner relationship for FSM - product specializations, partner enablement, partner-tier advancement, and joint pursuit activity
- Contribute delivery estimates, staffing plans, and technical risk assessments that inform pricing and margin on FSM work
- Other duties as assigned
