Senior IT Engineer Jobs in Illinois

In the digital economy, it takes more than good ideas and strong leadership to thrive. Upgrading outdated processes, systems and information is vital – but can be a risky investment in such a rapidly changing environment. That’s why some of the most prestigious businesses worldwide look to us for authoritative, agile, and efficient solutions for business decision-making. As a ServiceNow Senior Consultant you’ll play a leading role in that mission, providing the competitive edge our clients need to overcome some of the biggest creative and technical challenges around.

The opportunity

You’ll lead ServiceNow Transformation teams in a rapidly growing area of the business. It’s a client visible role, in which you’ll have opportunities to showcase your ability to not only motivate and develop your team but also establish and maintain new client relationships. You will have an opportunity to grow your consulting and team leadership skills, as well build relationships and obtain experiences that will define your career.

In this role, you will identify and define user/customer requirements, focusing on developing user interfaces (UI) across various platforms such as mobile, web, and tablets. You will be responsible for creating software components and services that interact seamlessly with upstream and downstream components, ensuring that business requirements are met through effective coding and programming.

• Writing clean, maintainable code and creating specifications that support business objectives.

Regular travel may be required to meet with clients, providing you with the opportunity to engage directly with stakeholders.

Skills and attributes for success

Here, you’ll serve a wide portfolio of clients - each with their own backgrounds, strengths, and ambitions, so no two days will be the same. That could mean working to improve our customers’ ITOM and CMDB process or evaluating how AI can streamline delivery. Wherever you find yourself, you’ll be making a visible impact on projects that cross borders and challenge conventional wisdom to encourage transformation.
