About 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. About the Role: AI models reshaping how our community creates, plays, and connects, all run on Compute Platform. As Senior Product Manager, Compute Platform , you'll set the strategy and roadmap for Roblox's next-generation AI infrastructure: the rapidly growing fleet of GPUs and AI accelerators spanning Roblox core and edge data centers, and public cloud that decides how fast we can train, serve, and scale every model on the platform. You'll own the products that turn raw GPU hosts into reliable, production-ready AI compute - driver and firmware management, fleet-wide health and performance, and the abstractions product teams across Roblox build on. You Will: • Drive strategy and roadmap for Compute Platform spanning Managed Kubernetes (Roblox Kubernetes Service), Managed Compute Services and other critical distributed systems, and our fleet of GPU and CPU machines managed via unified Fleet APIs - all across on-prem and cloud. • Drive the evolution of our Compute infrastructure to support Roblox’s most critical workloads - from AI to Storage to Data Analytics and more - each with their own distinct requirements. • Build and scale our GPU infrastructure to support training and inference for frontier models, enabling innovation at scale while optimizing cost-to-serve. • Stay laser-focused on Compute Platform Reliability for AI and other Roblox workloads, lowering mean-time-to-detection and recovery from failures. • Partner closely with seven key platform teams to understand their use cases and empower them with Compute Platform primitives enabling them to build on top easily. • Lead cross-functionally, acting as the connective tissue between Compute Platform Users, Engineers, AI researchers, Product, Finance, and Roblox leadership. You Have: • 7+ years of product management experience, focused on Compute infrastructure or distributed systems at scale. • Deep practical understanding of Kubernetes internals and control plane components (API Server bottlenecks, Etcd scaling limitations, Kubelet behavior, etc) and experience productizing custom Kubernetes Operators, Controllers, and Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) to extend platform capabilities beyond vanilla implementations. • Deep familiarity with GPU/accelerator architecture and scheduling challenges, including topology-aware placement, preemption, hardware affinity constraints, and mechanisms to validate resource readiness before scheduling to avoid wasted compute cycles. • Familiarity with cloud-native service networking including microservices, CNIs, and enterprise-grade service mesh architectures. • Built production-grade compute platforms where efficiency, reliability, and developer experience were designed-in from day one. • The ability to balance the needs of multiple users and stakeholders and make optimal tradeoffs between utilization, latency, cost and time-to-ship while maintaining reliability. • A builder mindset - you are passionate about prototyping, evolving products through rapid
