Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. ServiceNow is hiring a Director of Product Management to lead product strategy for helping developers build, test, and deploy applications on the Now platform. The role owns a unified development lifecycle across developer reach, sandboxes, agentic testing, and release operations, while leading a team of product managers.
Responsibilities
- Own the multi-year product strategy and roadmap across Developer Reach, Developer Sandboxes, Agentic Testing, and Release Ops, and define how they compose into one lifecycle from authored change to governed, audited deployment
- Build, lead, and develop a team of PMs, one per area. Set a clear standard for product craft, coach PMs on strategy and execution, and hold the bar on the seams between them: shared primitives, consistent models, and a single coherent customer narrative
- Set product direction for validating AI-originated change at scale: what it means to trust an agent's output, what evidence a release needs to carry, and how much of the test and review burden can be automated without losing accountability
- Drive the Developer Reach strategy, including the product model for building in production with admin control, guardrails, and reversibility at enterprise scale
- Define the sandbox strategy: provisioning speed, production parity, data handling, and the developer experience of getting a safe place to work in seconds rather than days
- Own the release governance path end to end, including the tradeoffs between developer velocity and auditability, and the gating model that makes those tradeoffs explicit rather than accidental
- Shape the metering and cost-modeling strategy for this area in partnership with Pricing & Packaging and Finance, and understand how it impacts the entire App Engine portfolio
- Build the triage discipline that keeps escalations across a broad product surface from displacing the roadmap
- Model an AI-first way of working: use agentic coding tools directly, build and deploy against your own products, and bring firsthand experience of the pain your customers are describing
Skills
- 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
- 12+ years of product management experience, including experience leading and growing a team of PMs, with a track record of setting technical strategy independently rather than executing a roadmap someone else defined
- A track record of developing PMs, raising the bar on product thinking and execution across a team, and growing earlier-career PMs into strong owners of their areas
- Deep experience owning developer platform, DevOps, or SDLC products at enterprise scale: CI/CD, test automation, environment management, release orchestration, or change management
- Genuine hands-on technical comfort, including reading code, reasoning about system architecture, and holding your own in design discussions with senior engineers. Direct, regular personal use of AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Windsurf in your own workflow
- Experience with enterprise change-management or release-governance systems and the tradeoffs between developer velocity and auditability, ideally including systems that gate deployment through a controlled artifact such as a change set
- Ideally, experience with test strategy at scale: automated test generation, coverage and flakiness economics, regression management, and what it takes for a team to actually trust a green build
- Familiarity with environment and infrastructure provisioning models, ephemeral environments, production parity, and data seeding or masking, and the cost and security tradeoffs each carries
- Working knowledge of agentic development workflows and what changes when a meaningful share of commits originate from an agent rather than a person: review, attribution, validation, and rollback
- Proven ability to build and defend an executive-level strategic case, and to navigate cross-business-unit governance and ownership disputes at the VP and SVP level, driving alignment across genuinely contested boundaries
- Demonstrated ability to run a high-volume operational surface, triaging escalations and production issues across many product areas while continuing to ship against a multi-year strategy
- Exceptional written and verbal communication, able to translate deep technical tradeoffs into a strategy that lands with engineers and with executive stakeholders in the same conversation
- Ideally, experience with test strategy at scale: automated test generation, coverage and flakiness economics, regression management, and what it takes for a team to actually trust a green build
