Role
Who you are
- Systems Thinking: You design systems, not just features. You understand how a change to the notification stack influences social density, which cascades into long-term retention and ecosystem health — and you use that mental model to make better prioritization decisions
- Execution Track Record: 5+ years of product management experience in a consumer product, with a demonstrable history of shipping impactful features through cross-functional collaboration
- Technical Depth: A formal degree in a technical field (Computer Science, Mathematics, Machine Learning, Econometrics) or equivalent applied experience. You can engage meaningfully with engineers and data scientists on architecture and methodology
- Analytical Rigor: You are comfortable operating in ambiguous, data-rich environments. You define the right metrics, design sound experiments, and translate results into clear product decisions
- Communication Excellence: Exceptional written and verbal communication skills. You can build a cohesive, data-driven narrative and distill complex tradeoffs into clear logic chains for both executive stakeholders and cross-functional partners
What the job involves
- Reporting to the Director of Product for User Growth, you will define and drive the strategy for retaining newly acquired users and own the User Engagement Platform: the system that delivers the right action, to the right user, at the right moment
- This is a high-impact, high-visibility role for a systems thinker who can balance the needs of UGC developers, feature teams, and diverse user segments while moving quickly in a complex, multi-stakeholder environment
- This role gives you the opportunity to architect the systems that will define how the next generation of Roblox users engage
- Own impact. You will focus on a particular cohort, analyze the data, generate hypotheses, and iterate quickly on experiments to drive results
- Design and build a User Engagement Platform that intelligently delivers the right incentives for the right user actions at the right time, operating across notifications, prompts, and in-product surfaces
- Lead the strategy and roadmap for engagement platforms including Notifications and Prompts, ensuring they scale alongside Roblox's evolving user base
- Drive cross-functional alignment across engineering, data science, and design to ship high-quality, high-impact features on aggressive timelines
- Partner with adjacent product teams to co-develop shared capabilities and coordinate toward common retention and engagement goals
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.
The platform has faced scrutiny over user safety, but responded by strengthen parental controls and launching initiatives like its "Parents Council". This move to address these issues, atop its strong financial performance and record payouts to developers, showcase Roblox's trajectory as one of innovation and impressive growth.
