Roblox is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join the Test Frameworks & Tooling team, which designs, builds, and scales tools and services powering the test automation lifecycle across Roblox services. The team's systems span test frameworks, execution, orchestration, debugging, AI test generation, and canary analysis.
In this role, you will:
• Build and scale test automation infrastructure by designing, implementing, and evolving frameworks, runners, orchestration services, workflow integrations, and supporting infrastructure that power reliable testing across Roblox's supported platforms.
• Advance the AI-native test lifecycle by developing intelligent tooling that improves test authoring, selection, execution, maintenance, and failure triage, using AI to reduce manual effort and make testing more accessible and effective.
• Develop test orchestration and intelligence systems that connect test planning, selection, execution, and failure analysis, enabling more efficient use of test infrastructure and faster feedback to engineers.
• Improve test reliability and debugging by building tools and services that enhance test stability, observability, failure diagnosis, and maintenance across a large and evolving test ecosystem.
• Shift quality earlier in the development lifecycle by integrating automated quality checks and actionable test feedback into development and CI/CD workflows.
• Drive projects end to end, taking ownership of technical initiatives from problem definition and design through production deployment, adoption, measurement, and continuous improvement.
• Collaborate across engineering teams—application, platform, QA, infrastructure, and developer productivity—to develop scalable solutions addressing engineer needs across Roblox.
The role is hybrid-based in San Mateo, with onsite presence required Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, with optional presence on Monday and Friday.
REQUIREMENTS:
• 2+ years of experience building large-scale backend or infrastructure systems. Experience with high-QPS, low-latency systems and infrastructure or performance-critical backend systems is a plus.
• Proficiency in one or more programming languages: C#, Go, Python, or similar.
• Curiosity and passion for solving open-ended problems; ability to identify challenges, develop deep understanding of systems, and drive solutions collaboratively.
• Strong teamwork and cross-functional collaboration skills.
• Nice to have: familiarity with HashiCorp software stack (Nomad, Vault, Consul) and infrastructure datacenter ops.
• Long-term mindset and willingness to take a long view to drive collaboration and build systems.
