About the Company Armada is the hyperscaler for the edge, delivering modular AI infrastructure from first deployment to AI factory with speed, scale and sovereignty. Named one of Fast Company's Most Innovative Companies and to the CNBC Disruptor 50, Armada’s solutions are deployed in over 60 countries globally for organizations ranging from energy to defense. With nearly $500 million in funding to date, Armada is backed by leading investors including Founders Fund, Lux, BlackRock and Microsoft (M12), alongside strategic partnerships with Microsoft, Dell, Palantir, NVIDIA, SpaceX, and Skydio.

We are building the infrastructure layer for sovereign and edge AI - rugged, deployable compute for customers that cannot rely on centralized cloud. Working at Armada means taking ownership, driving autonomy, and delivering impact. You’ll tackle challenges that haven’t been solved before and help build something transformative from the ground up.

What you do here will not only define your career but help further Armada’s mission to bridge the digital divide for customers around the world.

About The Role

This is a systems integrator role, not a systems owner role. At Armada, every system is ultimately owned by a function — GTM owns its stack, Finance owns theirs, and that’s working. What this person owns is everything in between: the data flows, the integration architecture, the sequencing of how systems get built and connected, and any system that doesn’t yet have a functional home.

As Director, Business Systems, you are the go-between for all subsystems at Armada. You’ll understand what every system’s data structure looks like, map the downstream implications of any change, and ensure that an update in one system doesn’t silently break three others. You’ll also serve as interim owner for any system that’s currently an orphan — not because you’ll own them forever, but because someone has to keep the lights on while functional ownership is established.

This is a highly technical role that also requires genuine business acumen. The right candidate doesn’t lead with a list of systems they’ve administered. They can walk into any enterprise platform and quickly describe how it stores data, what breaks if you change a field, and what three downstream systems will care about that change.

What You'Ll Do (Key Responsibilities)

Systems Integration and Architecture Own the integration architecture across Armada’s systems landscape: define how systems connect, what data flows where, and how changes in one system propagate downstream. Map and maintain a clear picture of Armada’s full systems stack — data structures, APIs, field mappings, and integration dependencies. Monitor upstream vendor release notes and system changes; assess downstream impact before changes propagate; coordinate remediation across functions before issues surface in production.

Manage integration sequencing: when multiple teams are building systems that integrate with each other, determine what goes in first, flag bridging risks, and prevent rework from parallel implementations. Define and govern integration patterns, including APIs, iPaaS, middleware, and data warehouse/lakehouse patterns. Evaluate build vs.

buy decisions and integration approaches with a bias toward simplicity, scalability, and security. Partner with data and engineering teams to ensure trustworthy reporting and analytics with clean data definitions. , CLM, HRIS tools, and adjacent G&A tooling).

Proactively identify orphan systems, stabilize them, and plan for handoff to a functional owner when one is in place. Anticipate near-term orphan systems tied to new implementations and hiring plans; ensure continuity of ownership through each transition.
