Staff Software Engineer

ServiceNow, Inc. • San Diego, CA • 6h ago

It all started in sunny San Diego, California in 2004 when a visionary engineer, Fred Luddy, saw the potential to transform how we work. Fast forward to today - ServiceNow stands as a global market leader, bringing innovative AI-enhanced technology to over 8,100 customers, including 85% of the Fortune 500®. Our intelligent cloud-based platform seamlessly connects people, systems, and processes to empower organizations to find smarter, faster, and better ways to work. But this is just the beginning of our journey. Join us as we pursue our purpose to make the world work better for everyone.

The AI Futures team is a forward-looking, hands-on group that accelerates the adoption of generative AI across the platform. We design and build powerful, reusable demos, agents, and proof-of-concepts that drive product feedback, customer engagement, and field enablement. We partner deeply with product, engineering, and customer-facing teams to showcase what's possible-and then help make it real.

As a Staff Software Engineer - AI Futures, you will play a key role in rapidly prototyping and delivering production-quality demo experiences that scale across business units. You'll work with bleeding-edge AI capabilities and own full lifecycle delivery-from design and integration to refinement and reuse.

What you get to do in this role:

Build high-quality, clean, scalable and reusable code by enforcing best practices around software engineering architecture and processes (Code Reviews, Unit testing, etc.)

Work with the product owners to understand detailed requirements and own your code from design, implementation, test automation and delivery of high-quality product to our users.

Design software that is simple to use to allow customers to extend and customize the functionality to meet their specific needs

Contribute to the design and implementation of new products and features while also enhancing the existing product suite

Be a mentor for colleagues and help promote knowledge-sharing

To be successful in this role you have:

Experience in leveraging or critically thinking about how to integrate AI into work processes, decision-making, or problem-solving. This may include using AI-powered tools, automating workflows, analyzing AI-driven insights, or exploring AI's potential impact on the function or industry.

Build high-quality, scalable, and reusable demo solutions that showcase GenAI capabilities in real-world use cases.

Experience in prompt engineering and GenAI

Experience in using AI productivity tools such as Cursor, Windsurf, etc is a plus or nice to have

Work closely with field, product, and engineering stakeholders to understand needs and translate them into demo assets and proof-of-concepts.

Create parameterized or templatized demos that reduce lift for future engagements and support internal reuse.

Lead design and development of AI-powered agents, workflow solutions, and customer-centric scenarios across ITOM, CSM, and beyond.

Actively contribute to the formation of best practices, patterns, and technical playbooks through hands-on work-not theoretical process.

Stay current with new AI features and rapidly proto@type integrations to validate value and usability.

Mentor and collaborate with peers across the team to accelerate team velocity and knowledge sharing.
