Senior DevSecOps Engineer

About Chamelio: Chamelio is revolutionizing legal tech with an AI-powered Legal Intelligence Platform trusted by some of the world's fastest-growing companies including Wiz, Socure, and Monday. We integrate seamlessly with Salesforce and other systems to help in-house legal teams accelerate negotiations, reduce risk, and unlock institutional knowledge through automated workflows. We're solving complex problems at the intersection of AI and legal operations. Join us as we scale our impact globally. About the Role: We are looking for a Founding Senior DevSecOps Engineer to be the architect of our automated security posture. You won't just be maintaining a system; you will be building it from the ground up. Because we handle some of the most sensitive documents our customers possess, our buyers' security teams scrutinize us deeply. As our first dedicated DevSecOps authority, you will weave security into the very fabric of our engineering culture, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud infrastructure. If you are looking for a role with profound meaning, where you can leave your fingerprint on a hyper-growth AI startup and build a secure infrastructure from a blank canvas, this is your stage. What You'll Do:

• Build from Scratch:Design, implement, and own the DevSecOps strategy and architecture for our cloud-native AI platform.
• Shift Left:Integrate automated security testing tools (SAST, DAST, SCA) directly into our CI/CD pipelines, ensuring code is secure before it ever reaches production.
• Secure the Cloud:Architect and harden our cloud environments (AWS/GCP) and containerized infrastructure (Kubernetes, Docker) using Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform) best practices.
• Automate Everything:Write scripts and build tools to automate security workflows, vulnerability management, and compliance checks.
• Collaborate & Empower:Partner directly with R&D, acting as a security enabler rather than a blocker, to design secure microservices and API architectures.
• AI Infrastructure Security:Secure our LLM deployments, vector databases, and agentic workflows, ensuring robust access controls and data isolation.

What You'll Bring:

• A Builder’s Mindset:You thrive in establishing processes and structures where none currently exist. You want to build the machine, not just operate it.
• Experience:5+ years of hands-on technical experience blending DevOps, Cloud Infrastructure, and Security Engineering.
• Technical Chops:Deep expertise in CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI) and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, CloudFormation).
• Cloud Mastery:Strong command of cloud security architectures (AWS/GCP) and container orchestration (Kubernetes).
• Coding Skills:Strong development/scripting capability in Python, Go, or Node.js/TypeScript to build security automation.
• Modern Tooling:Curiosity and adoption of AI tools—you actively use tools like Cursor or Claude Code and understand how they accelerate engineering.
• Drive:Passion to own and deliver—you take full responsibility for security outcomes and drive initiatives from idea to production.

Bonus Points:

• Experience building a DevSecOps function from scratch as a founding or first security hire.
• Hands-on experience securing LLM-powered systems and AI infrastructure.
• Background working in legal, financial, or other highly regulated, high-stakes data environments.
• Familiarity with compliance standards (SOC 2, ISO 27001).

Why Chamelio?

• Build from the ground up:Take a blank canvas and shape our security from day one.
• Bias for action:We move fast, ship today, and never let obstacles slow us down.
• High-impact ownership:Solve complex problems creatively in a fast-paced, hyper-growth environment.
• The startup adventure:Join a category-defining AI company where your work directly moves the needle.
