Director of Product - Industrial AI & IoT, Platform Integrations
About the Company
Armada is an edge computing startup that provides computing infrastructure to remote areas where connectivity and cloud infrastructure is limited, as well as areas where data needs to be processed locally for real-time analytics and AI at the edge. We’re looking to bring on the most brilliant minds to help further our mission of bridging the digital divide with advanced technology infrastructure that can be rapidly deployed anywhere.
We are seeking a Director of Product (15+ years of experience) to lead the integration of Armada’s Atlas and Edge platforms with leading industrial AI and IoT platforms. This is a high-autonomy, high-impact role with full ownership of both the strategic partnership with Palantir and the technical product roadmap for platform interoperability.
You will work directly with strategic industrial customers to identify high-value use cases, shape solutions that deliver measurable operational improvements, and lead the implementation and deployment of those solutions across Armada’s platform ecosystem. This includes enabling customers to connect their operational environments (production systems, SCADA, PLCs, and other OT assets) with their information systems (ERP, supply chain, logistics, inventory, maintenance) and leverage AI to improve efficiency, yield, quality, safety, and risk management.
