Job summary

Roblox in San Mateo, CA is seeking a Senior People Business Partner to lead User's people strategy and partner with senior engineering leaders on talent and org design. You will co-create a multi-year plan that aligns with product roadmaps and company goals, while shaping leadership development and workforce readiness across the group.

You'll leverage data and AI to drive decisions, build leadership bench, and enhance culture in a fast-growing, founder-led environment.

Qualifications

• 10+ years in HR, people strategy, or organizational effectiveness, including significant time as a senior PBP/HRBP partnering with VP-level leaders in engineering-centric, product-driven technology organizations
• A track record of org design and change at scale: reorgs, operating model shifts, or integrations affecting hundreds of people, with outcomes you can measure
• Built and owned multi-year talent strategies: succession and bench planning, workforce planning (build / buy / borrow), and leadership development that moved readiness metrics
• Strong analytical judgment. You're comfortable working directly with people data, partnering with People Analytics, and turning complex findings into a clear narrative for senior leaders
• Hands-on use of AI tools in your own work, and curiosity about how AI is changing team design and the role of managers
• Executive presence and courage: you influence senior technical leaders through credibility and evidence, and you'll tell them what they need to hear
• Discretion with highly confidential information, and comfort operating in ambiguity at the pace of a founder-led company

Responsibilities

• Co-create User's multi-year people strategy, turning product strategy into an annual plan and a multi-year talent roadmap.
• Diagnose and improve the system, not treat the symptom - Analyze operating model, org design, spans and layers, and talent systems to find friction and misalignment with the business strategy.
• Orchestrate change across teams - Lead large, multi-team changes, including reorgs, team integrations, and new operating rhythms.
• Build the leadership bench - Partner with senior leaders on a long-term plan for leadership capability and succession across the group.
• Bring data to the leadership table - Combine internal people data with external research to produce forward-looking insights.
• Use AI to work differently - Use AI tools to speed up analysis, synthesis, and program design.
• Shape culture with leaders - Use people data to find systemic barriers to engagement and inclusion, and design interventions that reflect Roblox's values.
• Make User a place great builders choose - Shape hiring programs, capacity planning, and employer brand for the group so User attracts and keeps the talent it needs.
