Program Overview

Our USAF client is a DoD-wide enterprise service capability designed to advance the DoD DevSecOps initiative by leveraging modern software development, security, and operational best practices across multiple classification levels. The main customer-facing team provides technical support and guidance throughout the customer lifecycle, enabling users to access and effectively utilize the PAAS offerings and capabilities.

GXM is seeking a qualified mid-level ServiceNow Developer to support the transition, implementation, and ongoing enhancement of an enterprise ServiceNow environment in support of a mission-critical IT program. The developer will contribute to the successful transition to ServiceNow, support platform configuration and integration activities, and provide recurring development and sustainment support following initial implementation and operational handover.

The successful candidate will independently execute assigned development tasks, translate business and technical requirements into scalable platform solutions, and collaborate with program stakeholders, system administrators, process owners, and technical teams to ensure the platform meets operational needs. Responsibilities include developing and maintaining ServiceNow applications, workflows, integrations, automation, and platform configurations in accordance with approved architecture, security requirements, and development best practices.

Workload is expected to be higher during the initial transition, implementation, and stabilization periods. Following transition, the role is expected to operate on a part-time basis, providing recurring platform maintenance, enhancements, defect remediation, and continuous improvement in accordance with an established schedule and prioritized backlog.
