<div>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.  At Roblox, we’re building the tools and platform that empower our community to bring any experience that they can imagine to life. 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.</div>Roblox Operating System (ROS) is our internal productivity platform that governs how Roblox operates as a company. Through an integrated suite of tools, ROS shapes how we make talent and personnel decisions, plan and organize work, discover knowledge, and scale efficiently. The ROS application brings together data from diverse sources – HR systems (Workday, Greenhouse), collaboration tools (Slack, Zoom, Calendar), developer platforms (GitHub), business applications (Pigment, Zendesk), and internal Roblox applications. Our goal is to unify these signals and provide employees and leaders with actionable insights that drive smarter, data-informed decisions. The ROS Engineering team is foundational to this vision. We build and maintain the data products and backend services that power the ROS ecosystem, ensuring insights are collected, transformed, and surfaced in meaningful ways. Our scope includes: <ul> <li>Synchronizing and integrating data across vital internal systems (Workday, Greenhouse, GSuite, JIRA, and ROS app databases).</li> <li>Building backend services and APIs that expose insights to applications and dashboards.</li> <li>Designing intuitive frontend features that make data accessible and engaging.</li> <li>Partnering with product managers and UX designers to deliver a unified employee experience.</li> </ul> This is a new team in our Roblox India location, working closely with data scientists, analysts, product managers, and engineers in both India and the US.
