Senior ServiceNow Developer

At OneSpan, we specialize in digital identity and anti-fraud solutions that create exceptional and secure experiences.

OneSpan is establishing its first internal ServiceNow development capability in India as part of a growing global Business Systems organization. This is an opportunity to become one of the foundational members of a new team and play a key role in the future direction of our ServiceNow platform supporting Customer Support, Professional Services, Revenue Operations, and IT.

Unlike many enterprise development roles, this position requires a highly independent and self-motivated individual who can work effectively with limited day-to-day oversight. You will collaborate closely with business stakeholders, a Business Analyst in Canada, and a shared Business Analyst in India while partnering with teams across North America, Europe, and India.

This is a hands-on role with an expected focus of approximately 70% ServiceNow development and support, 20% solution design and platform architecture, and 10% requirements analysis and stakeholder collaboration. The ideal candidate is comfortable working from enhancement requests, support tickets, project initiatives, and high-level business requirements that may not always be fully documented. You will be expected to evaluate needs, recommend scalable solutions, develop and test those solutions, maintain technical documentation, and support production issues in a highly customized ServiceNow environment.
