Both require strong coding abilities and relevant credentials, but Salaried Leetcode is more about practice and assessment, whereas Software Engineer positions involve ongoing development work.

Our client is a seed-stage startup (founded 2025) building technology that helps law enforcement search evidence and solve crime. Police and prosecutors across the U.S. use the platform to accelerate investigations into homicides, cold cases, and other major offenses by reducing digital evidence overload. The team includes ex-Palantir and ex-IDF engineers who have built national-scale systems before. Backed by top-tier investors, the company is growing fast with live deployments and paying agency customers. The mission is clear: bring technical excellence to public safety.
About the RoleYou'll be an early engineer shaping the company's AI backbone—processing massive video, audio, and text datasets to surface investigative leads. The work spans backend infrastructure and applied ML: building retrieval pipelines, integrating LLMs/VLMs, and deploying secure, distributed systems. You should be comfortable shipping end-to-end, from data flow design to production deployment in sensitive environments, and thrive in fast-paced, high-impact settings.
