The Manager, Service Now Platform is the strategic owner of Tanium's enterprise Service Now environment — accountable for the platform roadmap, governance, and delivery across our full suite of modules: ITSM, ITOM, Hardware and Software Asset Management (HAM/SAM), Vulnerability Response (VR), Security Incident Response (SIR), Integrated Risk Management (IRM), Strategic Portfolio Management (SPM), and Technology Provider/Customer Service Management (TPSM/CSM). You'll lead a team of seven platform specialists, mature our CMDB and CSDM framework, and serve as the primary partner to IT and Security, to stakeholders across the broader organization, and to the customer-facing teams who rely on Service Now to run the business.

Two things make this role stand out. You'll join our TPSM/CSM implementation mid-flight — a high-visibility program reshaping how Tanium delivers and manages customer service  you'll serve as customer zero for Tanium's own product integrations, working directly with our product and engineering teams to pilot, validate, and operationalize native Tanium capabilities within Service Now before they reach customers. You'll also lead the adoption of AI across the platform, from Now Assist to agentic workflows and AI-driven automation.

This is a people-first leadership role for a technically grounded manager who can balance hands-on platform ownership with leading an already high-performing team — meshing with its established culture while continuing to develop it.

This position follows the Company's hybrid schedule which currently requires employees to work in the office at one of the following locations a minimum of three days per week:
