Every day, tens of millions of people come to Roblox to explore, create, play, learn, and connect with friends in 3D immersive digital experiences– all created by our global community of developers and creators.
At Roblox, we’re building the tools and platform that empower our community to bring any experience that they can imagine to life. 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 Backend Engineer on the Co-Experience team, you will work on high-visibility initiatives that define the future of age-appropriate communication. Using modern technologies, you will build and maintain a social ecosystem that ensures safe, civil, and meaningful interactions across diverse age groups.
We are kind, highly collaborative, and draw on a mix of startup and large company backgrounds to iterate faster within Roblox.
Our primary product is a platform-level Party System. As the heartbeat of social interaction on Roblox, this system enables users to coordinate, form groups, and stay connected as they navigate across servers and immersive experiences.
While we have a strong foundation of chat, voice, gameplay mechanics, and creator APIs, we need your expertise to strengthen our backend infrastructure, build out new features, and accelerate our path toward product-market fit. As we scale, your work will directly impact our global community and support the company’s top-line growth.
