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 Design Engineer on the Design Acceleration team, you’ll be an individual contributor focused on evolving the systems and processes which power Roblox’s design organization through scalable systems, AI integrations, and custom tooling. Our team is responsible for building the orchestration layers and internal tools that empower designers and engineers to work faster and more cohesively. You will help build internal tools, like Figma plugins and design utilities, that empower designers and engineers to work faster and more cohesively. You have experience at the intersection of systems engineering and design tooling. You understand design systems, but your superpower is building the backend services, APIs, and data models that allow those systems to scale. Your work will help ensure our design tools, AI agents, and prototypes not only inspire—but deploy seamlessly into production environments. You will: - Architect and build scalable backend services and APIs that connect our design tools to AI models and production environments (Roblox Studio). - Develop agentic workflows and orchestration layers (such as Model Context Protocol servers) to enable natural language generation of UI components, layouts, and prototypes. - Build automated CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure to abstract away complex DevOps workflows, creating "zero-config" development environments for non-technical designers. - Design and maintain the data architecture that connects our design system to our AI data sources, ensuring design tokens and components are programmatically accessible and synced across multiple platforms. - Create internal tools, develop plugins for tools like Figma and Cursor, and build web apps focused on design linting, code generation, and automated compliance at scale. - Serve as the deeply technical bridge between core engineering, AI research, and product design, ensuring our design acceleration tools are secure, performant, and structurally sound. - You will report to the Manager of Design Acceleration. You have: - 6+ years of software engineering experience with a strong focus on full-stack or backend development, systems architecture, and API design. - Demonstrated experience building scalable internal services, not just frontend interfaces. - Familiarity with LLM orchestration, agentic workflows, and AI protocols (e.g., MCP). - Experience with cloud infrastructure, feature-flag management, version control (GitHub Enterprise), and automated deployment pipelines.
