Company
Armory
Continuous Deployment at any scale.
We build Armory Continuous Deployment, a platform that helps engineering teams deploy software safely and reliably at any scale. It integrates with existing developer workflows, automates deployment pipelines, and enforces security and stability controls so teams can ship faster without risking downtime or errors.
We live and operate out of San Mateo, CA, with remote team members; post-YC, we plan to keep the company based here with remote flexibility.
San Mateo has the engineering talent we need and proximity to customers and partners in the Bay Area. Remote lets us access expertise beyond this region while maintaining a core local base for focus and collaboration.
