The posting

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.

The Consumer Apps, Platforms team owns and architects the core web platform powering the global Roblox web experience at www.roblox.com. We define the foundational architecture, frameworks, and infrastructure that enable engineering teams across Roblox to build fast, reliable, and delightful web experiences for millions of users worldwide.

We are looking for a Senior Fullstack Software Engineer to help guide the evolution of our web infrastructure, and build compelling experiences for our users. In this role, you will architect, build, and scale our website powered by React and Next.js that serve our global user base. You will also establish engineering best practices, optimize frontend performance, and mentor engineers across the team.

You Will:

  • Design, build, and maintain highly scalable, reliable, and performant web applications using React and Next.js.
  • Own the core web architecture, build systems, and CI/CD pipelines to ensure a world-class developer experience for product teams.
  • Drive the full product lifecycle in close collaboration with product, design, and data science teams, transforming complex requirements into high-performance, polished features.
  • Lead systematic improvements to our web development processes and architecture.
  • Champion best practices for writing clean, maintainable, and well-documented code.
  • Stay ahead of industry trends in frontend & backend development, component-based frameworks, and UI/UX to drive continuous improvement.

You Have:

  • 6+ years of experience as a full-stack engineer, with a proven track record of building and shipping production-level applications.
  • Expertise in modern frontend technologies and component-based UI frameworks like React.
  • Expertise in an Object-Oriented Programming language (e.g., C#, Java, C++).
  • Solid experience with backend development, including designing APIs, working with microservices and databases, and building scalable server-side logic using languages such as Node.js
  • A deep understanding of the entire application lifecycle, from architecture and design to deployment and maintenance.
  • Exceptional communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to lead discussions and work effectively with product, design, and other engineering teams.
  • Experience with any of the following is a plus: Next.js, Node.js, Tailwind CSS, C++, Lua, contributing to or managing a design system.
  • An agentic mindset and fluency with AI coding tools: you look for ways to automate, delegate, and structure work so that both people and agents can do it well
  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent professional experience.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
