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.

As a Senior Software Engineer on the Test Foundations team, you will be responsible for designing, building, and maintaining a robust test automation framework across all platforms supported by Roblox—including mobile, desktop, console, and VR.

Your primary focus will be the development of our device farm manager and associated test automation primitives that orchestrate a large-scale fleet of physical devices and emulators. This infrastructure is critical to ensuring the reliability, scalability, and speed of our automated test pipelines.

You will 
  • Develop and enhance the test automation ecosystem to enable faster feature releases across the Roblox Universal App.
  • Build and maintain DFM components to ensure stability, scalability, and ease of integration for internal and external teams.
  • Create utilities, simulators, and infrastructure tools to support efficient test execution across platforms.
  • Collaborate on projects end-to-end: from technical design and planning to implementation and deployment.
  • Collaborate with QA, Infrastructure, and Product Engineering teams to align goals and scale Device Farm Manager.

You have

  • 3+ years of professional experience building scalable, distributed systems or frameworks.
  • Proficiency in one of the object-oriented programming languages such as C# or Java, and scripting languages like python or go.
  • Proven experience in building and evolving robust, cross-platform test automation frameworks.
  • Strong understanding of device management systems, test runners, and distributed orchestration.
  • Excellent problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills.

Nice to Have

  • Background in developing internal infrastructure or tooling for large engineering organizations.
