He is the first manager to come from outside Armagh since 1977.
While playing for Down, O'Rourke led them to their All Ireland win in 1991 but was axed as County manager in 2006 after a poor championship campaign.
"I've always enjoyed a challenge in life. Armagh is a very good footballing county. There's a great tradition of Gaelic games in Armagh. They're very passionate about their game, and that's what I like in a county and in a player. So it was very attractive to me. I'm looking forward to get in there and start to work with them," O'Rourke told UTV.
"It's a very special jersey. It has been made even more special but the heights that the jersey has gone to. I want every player to earn and die for the jersey, be very committed to the cause of being successful for Armagh."
"My target will be to win every game that we're playing and I will be looking for players with a smile on their face, enjoying playing for Armagh," he told UTV.
Paddy O'Rourke said he wanted to appoint two selectors from inside the county, as well as a coach and a medical team.
He replaces Peter McDonnell who resigned as Armagh's Senior manager in July.
