Job Description

WHY ROBLOX?

Roblox is ushering in the next generation of entertainment, allowing people to imagine, create, and play together in immersive, user-generated worlds. We're the one and only fastest-growing entertainment platform that lets anyone teach themselves how to code, publish, and monetize any experience imaginable-across any device-reaching millions of players across the globe.

The impact that you can have at Roblox is powerful. We're looking for someone who's eager to take on a meaningful role in the success of Roblox on a massive scale. Someone who takes play seriously, but also isn't afraid to have some fun either. Someone who's ready to take Roblox-and their career-to the next level.

In 2018, we were honored to be recognized as a Certified Great Place to Work®. We've fostered a company culture that empowers people to do the most defining work of their career in an environment that's made up of the most passionate, team-oriented, visionary, crazy-smart people you'll ever meet.

Join the Roblox team where play rules and the possibilities are endless.

At Roblox, the Developer Tools team focuses on millions of game developers on our platform. Its mission is to power rapid development by providing developers with world-class tools & access to high-quality content. In this position, you will lead the creation of Modeling and Content Creation Tools.

You Will:

* Lead Developer Tools' Tools and Modeling engineering team by coordinating with product managers, tech leads, and individual contributors
* Own and deliver complex technical projects from the planning stage through execution
* Provide guidance on architecture and design, and define processes for launching products and features
* Define, develop, and implement engineering best practices and strategies
* Provide mentoring to both junior and senior engineers in their progress on business and personal career goals
