The Agent Infra team builds the infrastructure that runs autonomous AI agents at Roblox for millions of creators building experiences on our platform, and for thousands of Roblox engineers shipping production code every day. Agent workloads break the assumptions most infrastructure is built on. They run for hours instead of milliseconds, they're non-deterministic, they execute code nobody wrote, and they need real credentials against real systems to be useful at all. Making that safe, durable, and cost effective at Roblox’s scale is the hard problem our team is solving. As an early member of the Agent Infra team you’ll work alongside an experienced engineering team on systems that are already in front of real users, at scale, in a field that didn’t exist two years ago. You Are Early in your career : 1-3 years of professional experience or a recent grad; with strong CS fundamentals and an interest in learning infrastructure, distributed, and agentic systems. Someone who builds things: You have projects, internships, or open-source work you'd genuinely enjoy walking us through. Into AI agents. You've built something with them, even something small, and you can tell us what broke. Comfortable
