Roblox is an online game platform and game creation system developed by Roblox Corporation that allows users to program and play games created by themselves or other users. It was developed by David Baszucki and Erik Cassel in 2004, and released to the public in 2006. As of February 2025, the platform has reported an average of 85.3 million daily active users. According to the company, its monthly player base includes half of all American children under the age of 16.
The mix of roles shows what Roblox needs right now. Pay is the median of the ranges the employer itself published in its ads (only roles with at least two published ranges).

What it demands
We counted how often Roblox's own 246 ads (those with a full description) state each requirement. This shows the filters the ads apply before anyone reads a resume. We have no data on why candidates are rejected after applying, and we do not guess.
Years of experience. 206 of 246 ads (84%) state a number of years. The median is 6 years; 75% ask for 5 or more and 17% for 10 or more.

How to get in
Pick the role family closest to your skills. At Roblox the biggest are: Software engineer / Developer, Data scientist / Machine learning, DevOps / Cloud / SRE.
Open a job ad and read it end to end; each ad links to the employer's own application page, which is the only place to apply.
Set a free e-mail alert for new Roblox jobs so you apply while the ad is fresh (1 were posted in the last 3 days).
Check pay, level and place in the tables above before you spend time on an application.
What the hiring process, culture, schedules and benefits are like is not in our sources, so we do not describe it. Read the job ads and the employer's own site.
