- A learning mindset, with motivation to learn a diverse set of skillsets and bring real improvement to both our internal and external customers

- Cloud (Azure, AWS, or GCP)
- Infra as code (Terraform, cloud formation or similar)

- Infrastructure management (e.g some but not all of Linux, networking, virtualization, DNS)
What the job involves
- The systems we build run on a variety of cloud providers, and we have a high focus on automated, code-defined solutions
- You will get the opportunity to work in all the major public clouds, implementing solutions via code, while also gaining understanding of underlying infrastructure technologies such as DNS, LDAP, Linux, messaging systems among a few
- You will be part of a newly formed team that forms part of a great wider organization that puts a high priority on personal growth and offers great perks
- In the team, you will get the opportunity to:
- Be the primary team to build and manage our Canadian based sovereign cloud running on Google Cloud as well as contribute to our other globally distributed clouds
- Manage enterprise infrastructure at scale with code utilising Terraform & Crossplane on public cloud (Azure, AWS & Google Cloud) as we rapidly expand our offerings around the globe
- Develop and onboard new services into our environment utilising languages such as Go and Python, and automation tools such as Puppet and Ansible
- Define unique solutions which have a real impact on our customers and meet their functional and security needs
- Work on our next generation of software offerings such as Kubernetes as we aim to have our entire environment be fully code defined
- Research and implement new open-source and commercial tools, technologies and methodologies
- Collaborate with our peer teams such as SRE, networking and System Administrators to ensure stability of our environment
Our take
ServiceNow provides cloud-based solutions that define, structure, manage, and automate services for enterprise operations, transforming old, manual ways of working into modern digital workflows. The company was founded in 2004 with a vision to build a cloud-based platform that would enable regular people to route work effectively through the enterprise.
Much as Salesforce enables a company to manage its external clients by keeping a record of all contacts and interactions, ServiceNow promises an internal system to meet the needs of employees. It has succeeded in claiming half the market, setting itself apart from legacy IT service-management software players like BMC Software, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Cherwell Software and CA Technologies.
The company's success comes from two product traits: simplicity and customisability. ServiceNow's IT tools don't require the IT department to set them up. Once running, they offer a single collection centre for requests, data points and checklists, all of which can in turn be analysed by algorithms to predict needs, flag concerns and measure efficiency.
The company has more than 7,700 customers, including 85% of the Fortune 500 list of the United States' largest corporations. ServiceNow now looks to increase its revenue threefold in the upcoming years and has entered into a 5-year partnership plan with Visa, beginning with the launch of a Visa-integrated dispute resolution solution for issuers. The company is prioritising organic growth over mergers and acquisitions, with a target revenue of $15B, something which its Visa partnership will no doubt aid in achieving.
