The Department: Nifty Gateway
Nifty Gateway Studio brings together artists and their communities through NFTs. We work with today’s leading creative minds to push the boundaries of human experiences through the development of extraordinary creative experiences built on-chain. Nifty Gateway was founded by Duncan and Griffin Cock Foster in 2018, and acquired by Gemini in 2019, with the belief that crypto networks and the blockchain have the power to fundamentally change the art world by creating greater choice, independence, and opportunity for artists, creators, and collectors.
The Role: Principal Software Engineer
At the Principal level, engineers are expected to master their immediate domain and have broad impact across other engineering teams. This person will define technical direction, unblock and mentor teammates, and tackle the most complex system and architectural challenges. Principal engineers are distinguished by their organization-level impact and focus on high-leverage activity, in addition to direct code contribution. Beyond pure technical focus, Principals bridge the gap between management and
engineering - they obsess over not only the how, but also what and why, and are able to disseminate this context to both audiences, up-leveling the entire organization in depth and delivery.
Responsibilities:
- Influence leadership / CTO organization and collaborate with other Principal Engineers across the organization to build the right software architecture for Nifty Gateway.
- Design, implement, deploy, and maintain services supporting multiple engineering teams.
- Advocate and model technical and operational excellence.
- Drive large cross-group technical initiatives.
- Set long-term technical strategy for services within and adjacent to primary domain.
- Review, validate and provide feedback on technical design documents.
- Perform thorough code reviews to ensure quality and up-level peers.
Minimum Qualifications:
- 8-10 years software development experience. We primarily use Python (Django framework with DRF for API).
- 5 years in-depth experience with distributed systems or cloud computing. We primarily use AWS native technologies, Docker.
- Significant experience with configuration management and infrastructure as code. We often use Terraform and Ansible.
- Experience building and owning low-latency, high-availability critical systems or cloud-based services.
- Experience defining, managing, and executing a portfolio of complex engineering projects.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Expertise in event-driven architecture.
- Expertise in instrumentation, observability and monitoring.
- Experience with container and orchestration technologies and relevant security considerations. We often use Kubernetes and EKS.
- Expertise in Relational and non-relational databases.
- Experience in Celery, EventBridge, SQS and SNS.
- Experience in Unity Framework, Generative AI.

Frequently Asked Questions
- We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
- Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
- The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
- Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
- We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
- We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
- From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
- We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
- If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
- EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
