Exactly what I was going to say with /service/somevendor/someproduct,
but I'd add that you might want to think about mounting the new file
system via BPXPRM or automount or whatever. Otherwise, I invariably end
up trying to write to the root ZFS months later, or can't remember the
correct ZFS for the vendor directory.

What is the recommendation regarding having non-ibm products mounted in /service ?
When it comes to IBM SMP/E managed parts, you change the DDDEF path by prefixing it with /service. So /bin becomes /service/bin.
However, I see no reason why you cannot expand on that and build some subdirectories in /service, say /service/ibm/zos, /service/ibm/db2, /service/somevendor/someproduct, etc. as mount points for the corresponding service file systems. Then adjust the DDDEFs accordingly, or for non-SMP/E products adjust the install script, install job or whatever.
