Our vision is to reimagine the way people come together, from anywhere in the world, and on any device. We’re on a mission to connect a billion people with optimism and civility, and looking for amazing talent to help us get there.

Why Account Authentication?
The account authentication team is the front door of the metaverse. We sign users up for Roblox on all platforms and subsequently re-authenticating those users when they want to use Roblox after they log out or move to a new device. When we do our job well, Roblox users will have a seamless experience regardless of whether they are using a PC, Android phone, or iOS tablet.
As a Principal Engineer on Roblox's Account Authentication team, you will specifically provide technical leadership on our team's efforts to bootstrap biometric user authentication at Roblox. This is a greenfield project marked by risk, ambiguity and incredible possibilities for high profile impact.
