Principal Machine Learning Platform Engineer, Foundation AI
Roblox, San Mateo, CA
The role
This role blends product thinking, developer experience, backend engineering, and infrastructure at scale. Hands‑on ML experience is a plus; a track record of building internal platforms that developers love is a must.
What you will do
- Own platform as a product and set direction end to end: Define requirements, write RFDs, and ship APIs, SDKs, CLIs, and UIs that make ML@Roblox easy to adopt.
- Bootstrap and maintain core ML Platform components: Serving Layer, Model Registry, Pipeline Orchestrator, and Training/Inference control planes.
- Set technical strategy and oversee development of high scale and reliable infrastructure systems, with clear SLOs for latency, availability, and cost.
- Design great developer experiences with paved‑road templates, golden paths, opinionated defaults, and clear docs to reduce time‑to‑first‑production.
