Role
Who you are
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in Computer Science, Engineering, or a similar technical field
- 8+ years of product management experience, with a demonstrable track record of delivering business-critical products involving AI systems, automation platforms, developer tooling, agentic workflows, and turning vibe-coding into reality. Experience building and scaling zero-to-one products preferred
- Strong technical understanding of AI/ML dev ops, evaluation frameworks, agentic workflows, and permission systems integration. Proven ability to collaborate closely with technical leads and data scientists
- Deep user empathy and strong product sense; ability to translate complex workflows and ambiguous needs into usable, impactful, and responsible AI-powered experiences. Experience operationalizing responsible AI/ML practices (i.e., bias monitoring, privacy, data governance, regulatory compliance, and risk management) at scale
- Exceptional communication, stakeholder alignment, and influencing skills—comfortable leading cross-functional initiatives and presenting to executives. Strategic vision with a bias for action: thrives in fast-paced, ambiguous environments, and can quickly assess and adapt to new information, shifting priorities, or technical constraints
- Passionate about the potential for AI and automation to transform the world of work—balancing ambitious vision with a commitment to ethical and responsible deployment
- Curious, adaptable, and continuously learning; motivated to stay at the forefront of emerging AI and product management practices
- Highly organized and skilled at managing complex, evolving projects start-to-finish
What the job involves
- Roblox Operating System (ROS) is an internal platform that governs how we operate as a company. Via a holistic and integrated set of tools, ROS shapes our talent and personnel decisions, how work is planned and organized, how communication and knowledge is discovered, and ultimately how we scale effectively
- We are looking for a Senior Product Manager who will help to scale the ROS team while focusing on AI enablement of both existing and new ROS products
- This is a new team at Roblox and we need a leader who can work with a high level of freedom and autonomy, advocate best in class development practices and collaborate with internal and external partners on a daily basis
- This is a unique opportunity to join a small but fast-growing team with a massive impact on the future of Roblox. You will report to the Head of Product for Roblox Operating System
- As Senior/Principal Product Manager for AI Enablement within the Roblox Operating System (ROS), you will lead product strategy, vision, and delivery for our most advanced automation and AI-powered and agentic capabilities
- Your work will directly drive Roblox’s 2030 ambition of scaling revenue and operational effectiveness through innovative, AI-centric productivity solutions for a diverse community of Builders
- You will be expected to operate independently, navigate ambiguity, and drive projects from zero-to-one through to scalable, high-impact implementation
- You will report to the Head of Product for Roblox Operating System and collaborate closely with engineering, data science, UX, legal, and other cross-functional teams
- Own and drive the vision, strategy, and execution to platformize AI-powered search, agents and workflows for company-wide impact focused productivity beyond the realm of code generation. Build the foundational ecosystem to support agents as teammates and employees at scale
- Identify high-value AI opportunities by working with executive stakeholders, analyzing business processes, and understanding employee pain points. Advocate for AI as a force multiplier, facilitating adoption and change management across the company and measuring impact on organizational efficiency and user satisfaction
- Partner with engineering, data science, people science and design to build, evaluate, continuously deploy and monitor AI-driven workflows, agents and search—including but not limited to credential automation, data-driven decision support, and intelligent user experiences
- Translate ambiguous problems into clear product requirements and roadmap, defining appropriate success metrics and ensuring alignment with business goals
- Define and evangelize best practices for responsible AI use, ensuring all initiatives are in line with industry-leading AI Responsible Use Principles by keeping human judgment at the core of key decisions, establishing monitoring and validation to avoid bias or harm, ensuring compliance with laws/regulations, and safeguarding privacy and security
- Partner with legal, InfoSec, and operations to develop governance, review, and monitoring processes for responsible and ethical AI and automation deployment
Our take
Online gaming may be a well-established space, but Roblox has distinguished itself as a leader by empowering its community to build, share, and profit from their own creations, turning game development into an accessible, rewarding ecosystem for millions of users.
In addition to standard games, the platform offers virtual worlds and other experiences to explore and interact with. Its platform provides an online ecosystem for millions to create, socialize, chat, and explore immersive experiences with friends. In fact, in the US its used by two-thirds of children aged 9 to 12.
While the platform does face scrutiny over users safety (particularly given its young audience) the company's efforts to strengthen parental controls and open dialogue through initiatives like its new Parents Council signal a growing commitment to addressing these challenges. At the same time, its financial performance and creator-focused investments underscore a business in very strong health. With record payouts to developers, an expanding older player base, and a platform that increasingly rewards creative talent, Roblox's trajectory remains one of innovation and impressive growth.
