**Company Description**:
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.

We’re in growth mode across the APAC region—and looking for a seasoned, strategic, and high-impact Professional Services Pre-Sales Solution Architect to shape and drive transformational services programs on the ServiceNow AI, CRM & Industry Platform. This role is pivotal in expanding ServiceNow’s footprint through business transformation, value-led services engagements, and AI-powered solutions.

You will partner closely with Service Sales Executives, Account Executives, Solution Consulting, and other go-to-market teams to design and position large, complex, and transformational service-led deals with some of our most strategic customers. Acting as the single thread providing continuity from sales to delivery, you will ensure that every program of work is aligned to customer outcomes, commercially sound, and positioned for successful execution.

This role isn’t just about supporting growth—it’s about leading with AI and business transformation to help our customers achieve tangible outcomes faster, while making ServiceNow the best buying decision they’ve ever made.

- Lead discovery workshops with strategic and enterprise customers to uncover business goals, transformation priorities, and AI-driven opportunities.
- Translate vision into a clearly defined delivery scope — producing Statements of Work (SOWs), delivery roadmaps, resource plans, and success criteria.
- Build accurate services estimates, select the right pricing model (T&M, fixed price, or subscription based), and ensure profitable delivery margins.
- Collaborate with Solution Architects, Practice Leads, and Delivery Managers to validate feasibility, identify risks, and secure the right skills for success.
- Present proposals and delivery strategies to executives, articulating both the technical solution and the business value case.
- Shape AI-enabled workflows and intelligent automation approaches that accelerate time-to-value and maximize ROI on the ServiceNow platform.
- Act as the trusted advisor during the pre-delivery phase, ensuring smooth transition from sales to delivery.
