Some DE jobs have leetcode interviews, some SDE jobs don't have leetcode interviews. So don't switch tracks for that reason.

But if comes down to no job or a DE job then I'd take the DE job.

In my observation, DE interviews even if they are leet code based have relatively easy compared to that of SDE roles. And it is not like I hate DE, i like it too.
