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.

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.
WHY SAFETY?
At Roblox, we strive to connect a billion people with optimism and civility, and the Safety organization’s mission is to become the leader in civil immersive online communities. We systematically and proactively detect, remove, and prevent problematic content and behavior, and we make Roblox accounts secure and free from compromise. We cover a broad area of the tech spectrum, including machine learning, classifiers for 3D models, experimentation, automation, detection workflows, and AI-powered text filters. Aligned and partnering with product teams, we use this toolbelt to discover new opportunities, influence and shape the product roadmap and prioritization, build safety products, and measure the impact on our community of users and developers. In doing so, we keep Roblox safe, civil, and inclusive, and we foster positive relationships between people around the world.
WHY Moderation Services?
As a Senior Software Engineer on the Moderation Services Team, you will architect, implement, and grow the systems that enable the moderation of all content and interactions on Roblox.

In this role, you will report to the Senior Engineering Manager of the Moderation Services team.

- Design and implement the next generation of Appeals and Reversals for Roblox creators and users. We make mistakes, and appeals enable us to make things right.
- Manage end-to-end solutions from creation to deployment – including implementation, testing, deployment and observability

- Experience with scalable infrastructure and distributed systems
- Experience in Golang/C++/C#/Java/etc.

You Are:
- An advocate: for Engineering Excellence committed to benchmarks, clean code, and efficient systems.
