You can put the DI before or after the pump as both ways work. However, I usually recommend having it before the pump as this balances the pump's workload.

Always thought after the pump

After the pump, the suction side of the pump needs to be as free flowing as possible so its constantly primed. When the tank level is low if the di is before the pump then water will need to be sucked up out of the tank then through the di which isn't ideal. The pump will probably do it but its best avoided.
