Job description

As a Senior Product Manager in Engineering Acceleration, you will define the vision and product strategy for how software engineers work at Roblox, ensuring over 2,000+ engineers spend more time building the metaverse and less time managing infrastructure complexity. Primarily owning the developer experience for Continuous Deployment (CD), Testing, and Observability platforms, you will integrate cutting-edge AI developer tooling into daily workflows—leveraging AI for automated software testing, production incident diagnosis, and root‑cause analysis. In this high‑impact role, you will partner closely with Engineering, Design, Security, and SRE/Reliability leaders to unify, modernize, and scale internal developer platforms.

• Tooling Modernization & Adoption: Unify and modernize legacy developer tools into a world-class, frictionless developer platform that engineers rely on and enjoy using daily.
• Developer Productivity Metrics: Own and continuously improve quantitative productivity metrics and satisfaction scores across the Roblox engineering community.

Cross‑Functional Alignment & Execution

• Experience Track: 10+ years of total product management experience, including at least 5+ years specifically shipping infrastructure, developer experience (DevEx), or operational tools.
• Domain Depth: Deep familiarity with modern developer platforms—including automated testing frameworks, observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog), and CI/CD pipelines.
• AI Tooling Expertise: Demonstrated expertise in the evolving landscape of AI developer tools, code copilots, and AI-driven testing/observability (including a realistic understanding of LLM limitations).
• Technical Foundations: Strong technical foundation (Computer Science degree or equivalent practical technical background preferred).
• Strategic Leadership & Influence: Proven track record of defining multi-year technical product strategies and rallying large cross‑functional teams around a shared vision.
• Executive Communication: Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, capable of explaining complex developer infrastructure concepts to both executive leadership and technical staff.
