Our work is guided by three core principles:Specialization: We focus solely on corporate development. This allows us to deliver a level of expertise and insight that generalist firms simply can’t match.Customization: No two companies approach M&A the same way. We tailor our services to meet your specific needs, whether that’s interim leadership, talent acquisition, or strategic advisory support.Partnership: We view every engagement as a partnership. Your success is our success, and we’re committed to delivering value at every step of the journey.If you're building or expanding your corporate development capabilities and want a trusted partner who understands both the art and science of M&A, CorpDevX is here to help.

Robin Capital Partners is looking for IT deal partners to work closely with us in identifying, sourcing, and evaluating potential targets with the intent of joining the acquisition company as a CEO, CFO or board member post-close. These IT deal partners will be asked to work with RCP in evaluating industries and growth potential of acquisition targets and assist with building rapport with sellers. The ideal candidate should have prior experience in management, P&L, and M&A.While we do not require a full-time commitment, we do expect that some of your time will be spent dedicated evaluating opportunities. This is more of an entrepreneurial path that can yield considerable upside than finding another executive role.

Pedro de Armas, Founder
I'm the Founder of CorpDevX, where I lead our day-to-day operations and work closely across strategic planning, talent sourcing, due diligence, and capital allocation. I launched CorpDevX to create a more thoughtful, relationship-driven alternative to the traditional advisory and recruiting models—one that's committed to building real, enduring value and helping businesses position themselves for sustainable, long-term growth.My background as a first-generation American and the son of entrepreneurial parents who built and ran businesses has shaped my core values around resilience, integrity, and trust. Those same values are the foundation of CorpDevX and guide how we serve our clients and partners every day.With over 14 years of experience in global banking and private equity, I understand firsthand the complexities of deal sourcing snd building relationship with Founders/CEOs—sometimes over many years. I want my clients to be the preferred choice the moment someone decides a partnership is appropriate for them. That's why I'm committed to making the CorpDev process as clear, collaborative, and supportive as possible—laying a strong foundation for future success.I graduated cum laude with a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration from Valencia College and went on to pursue my Master's at the University of Florida. Outside of work, you’ll most often find me spending time with my wife and two young boys, playing sports, or watching my kids try new activities.
