The Role

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.

With a primary focus on India, this role reports to the Lead Counsel - APAC (Platform/Regulatory) and may occasionally involve additional ad-hoc support in other APAC regions.

  • Provide ad-hoc support across other APAC jurisdictions, as vital.

You Have:

  • 10+ years of relevant legal experience (e.g., online gaming, online safety, privacy, social media, or content regulations);
  • License to practice law in India;
  • Track record of creative problem-solving with limited supervision, handling critical issues and multiple cross-functional partners.
  • Critical judgment skills and the ability to analyze problems, propose solutions, and provide practical advice, taking into account the needs and objectives of the business;
  • Ability to work well with a small, tightly knit team and able to handle a diverse and complex workload while maintaining priorities and proactively anticipating issues;
  • Experience with applicable platform regulatory compliance requirements

You Are:

  • Innovative: You proactively identify emerging risks and implement out of the box ideas to achieve goals.
  • Analytical: Curious to investigate large, ambiguous problems, and measure the problems and the solutions.
  • Proactive Problem Solver: You anticipate potential problems and take proactive and conclusive action to address them.
  • Team-oriented: You lift up your peers and find ways to make the team stronger

Roles that are based in our San Mateo, CA Headquarters are in-office Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, with optional in-office on Monday and Friday (unless otherwise noted).

You’ll Love:

  • Excellent medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • A rewarding 401k program
  • Flexible vacation policy (varies by exemption status)
  • Roflex - Flexible and supportive work policy
