If you've been there a while and have some latitude start a 'Labs' initiative.
I've been doing this at every company I work at. Ask for 10% or 20% time to spend building prototypes to leverage technology to solve problems that provide a huge value to your org.
Compile a list of problems and look for the lowest lift and highest value to org.
Build one and if it's a success you'll get full buy in.
You can pick the stack you want to work with and integrate with ServiceNow as needed. Not familiar with service now but there are always things you can do with multiple stacks/services that provide value to the org.
Maybe this will scratch your itch and possibly open up a new position/group you could develop inside and run.
