About the role
The Deployment Engineer is a professional field engineering role responsible for executing deployment, commissioning, startup, troubleshooting, and operational readiness activities for Armada’s modular data center infrastructure across North America and global customer environments.
This role requires hands-on technical expertise across mission-critical infrastructure systems including electrical, mechanical, controls/BAS, networking, and low-voltage systems. The Deployment Engineer is expected to exercise sound technical judgment during field operations, independently resolve infrastructure issues within established procedures, and contribute to the successful execution of complex deployment projects.
The ideal candidate combines strong troubleshooting capability, operational discipline, and field execution experience with the ability to operate effectively in fast-paced deployment environments. This role works closely with Senior Deployment Engineers, Engineering, Manufacturing, Deployment Leadership, and Customer Operations teams to ensure infrastructure systems are deployed, validated, and operationally ready.
