Kodex
About the company
Kodex
revolutionizes how organizations handle sensitive subpoenas and data requests from law enforcement and government agencies. Founded by a former FBI agent and backed by leading investors including Andreessen Horowitz, Y Combinator, and Thiel Capital, Kodex has become the industry standard for secure data exchange. Our platform supports over 15,000 government agencies in 190 countries and is trusted by industry leaders like Coinbase, Stripe, and AT&T. By transforming a traditionally complex and manual process into a streamlined digital workflow, Kodex helps organizations strengthen compliance, enhance security, and reduce operational costs by millions each year. We bridge the gap between companies and authorized requestors, ensuring that sensitive data is handled with uncompromising security, transparency, and efficiency. About the Role
We're seeking a Full Stack Software Engineer to help build the cornerstone of our business: our Law Enforcement Response portal. You'll join a small, experienced team with backgrounds at companies like Medium, HashiCorp, Microsoft, Mozilla, Meta, Palantir and Uber. This is an ideal role for full-stack generalists who thrive in fast-paced environments, enjoy solving hard technical problems, and want to own meaningful projects end to end. As an early engineer, you’ll wear many hats and help shape the future of our product, our codebase, and our culture. What You’ll Do
You’ll work closely with our Director of Product and fellow engineers to design, develop, and ship high-impact features across the stack. Upcoming projects include: Building threat detection and law enforcement verification systems
used by some of the world’s largest companies
Launching new product verticals
such as customer reimbursement workflows for time spent responding to legal requests
Driving performance optimizations
across the system — from database tuning and encryption middleware to frontend responsiveness
Participating in on-call rotations
(roughly one week every two months) to maintain system reliability and respond to incidents
Raising the bar on engineering quality
through architectural improvements, testing infrastructure, and thoughtful refactoring
