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. 

A career at Roblox means you’ll be working to shape the future of human interaction, solving unique technical challenges at scale, and helping to create safer, more civil shared experiences for everyone.

As a Senior Software Engineer for UI Systems on the Roblox game engine team you will report to the Director of Gameplay to work on our state-of-the-art game engine building User Interface features across all of Roblox.

Priorities can often change in a real-time environment like ours.

You will

  • Develop and maintain engine code that powers all UI features in Roblox games, apps, and studio experiences
  • Use common 3D APIs such as Metal, OpenGL, or DirectX
  • Carry the torch for the future of UI development
  • Blaze a path forward for layout schemes that scale from mobile to 4k monitors
  • Work with our game developer community and internal Roblox app developers to help achieve their creative UI vision
  • Write scalable systems that experiences possible on high-end devices, while maintaining performance on low end devices

  • Customer-centric: you write systems that can be understood by developers of varying disciplines, such as engineers, game designers, and UI designers
  • Systems-level: 3D math, pointers, templates, and raw blocks of memory are tools to write code, not your enemies
  • Resource-minded: You are familiar with the challenges of working on constrained platforms like consoles or mobile devices
  • Responsible: You are thorough in your designs, rigorous in handling potential failure cases, and diligent in automated testing
