Director of Enterprise Data & Platform Architecture
CordanceAbout the role
Cordance is dedicated to accelerating the growth of vertically focused business-to-business (B2B) software-as-a-service (SaaS) companies through acquisition and long-term tactical and financial guidance. We’re experienced operators and subject-matter experts with a passion for software and building businesses. We partner with founders to help them scale their businesses and realize their companies’ full potential.
We look for businesses with strong leadership and high potential for profitable growth, and work together to increase year-over-year revenue, company efficiency, and impact. Cordance envisions that all companies we work with achieve their full potential. We embrace what makes each company great and build on those foundations. We believe in elevating a company as it scales, delivering dignity to the organization and its employees, and sharing a passion for building a legacy.
We are seeking a highly strategic yet hands-on Senior Director of Enterprise Data & Platform Architecture to lead the evolution of our enterprise systems, data platforms, and integration strategy across a rapidly scaling, acquisition-driven organization.
This role sits at the intersection of:
- Enterprise Architecture

- Business Systems
