- Enhance out-of-the-box ServiceNow components and create new custom widgets, pages, and themes for the Service Portal and Employee Center
- Ensure all designs align seamlessly with ServiceNow's platform design system and the foundational principles of the Next Experience UI
- Act as a subject matter expert on ServiceNow UX best practices, providing guidance and recommendations to development teams and stakeholders
- Configure and extend ServiceNow modules (e.g., HRSD, ITSM, CSM, GRC) to optimize the user experience
- Responsible for defining requirements, designing workflows, participating in all build/configuration, testing, and troubleshooting activities to successfully deliver a project/service request
- Ensure ServiceNow applications meet Okta security standards and best practices
Requirements

- Experience with modern front-end frameworks, including AngularJS, React, jQuery, and Bootstrap
- Ability to conduct qualitative and quantitative research, including interviews, surveys, and usability testing, to uncover user needs and validate design decisions
- Proficiency in creating low-fidelity sketches and high-fidelity interactive prototypes to explore design solutions and gather early feedback
- Strong understanding of UI design principles (layout, typography, color theory) and the ability to craft engaging, aesthetically pleasing, and intuitive interactions
- Experience with responsive design principles and cross-browser compatibility
- Extensive experience with the ServiceNow Employee Center (or Service Portal), including widget development, theme customization, and portal configuration
- Experience with UI Builder for constructing Next Experience UI Landing Pages, Configurable Workspaces, and custom web experiences
- Familiarity with ServiceNow's UI policies, client scripts, and business rules as they relate to user experience
- Ability to stay updated on UI/UX best practices, emerging technologies, and ServiceNow platform changes, with a propensity for incorporating modern design trends into solution design
