Software Engineer, Data Engineering

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.

We're looking for an outstanding engineer to join the Roblox Datasets team. We develop and maintain highly leveraged core datasets, frameworks, and tooling that support the growing demand for analytics across the company. Our team sits within Foundation AI, and we partner closely with Product, Engineering, Analytics, and Data Science. We help these teams move faster by making core data more reliable, better modeled, easier to discover, and easier to use.

This team sits at an important intersection between platform and product. We partner broadly across major Roblox pillars, including Infra, Economy, Creator, Engine, Ads, Discovery, Growth, Compliance, Safety, Apps, and Social. That means you will have broad exposure to both technical and business problems.

You Will:

• Build and improve the data pipelines, datasets, and internal tools that power decision-making across Roblox


• Partner with engineers, data scientists, and product teams to turn messy, ambiguous data needs into reliable, reusable data assets


• Help improve data quality, observability, reliability, and discoverability across the stack


• Contribute to foundational work that supports multiple product pillars, not just a single surface area


• Learn from experienced engineers while taking real ownership of projects early in your tenure

You Have:

• 1+ years of industry experience and a real interest in data and data systems


• Strong technical foundations, including proficiency in one or more programming languages such as Python, C#, C++, or Go


• Deep understanding of SQL; experience with ETL orchestration is a plus


• Curiosity about large-scale problems, along with a strong appreciation for craftsmanship, reliability, and usability


• A proactive approach to learning new tools and asking clarifying questions to understand the bigger picture


• Strong teamwork skills and a growth mindset, with a desire to learn through mentorship, ownership, and close collaboration with senior engineers and cross-functional partners


• A long-term mindset and the desire to help shape how Roblox builds trusted, scalable data foundations for the future
