Product Designer, Discovery at Roblox

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. As a Product Designer on Discovery, you'll help design the surfaces that connect billions of users with the best experiences for them — including home page, ranking, search, events, notifications, onboarding, and more. Working collaboratively within a cross-functional pod alongside product, research, data science, and engineering, you'll own end-to-end design work on small-to-medium projects with increasing independence as you grow. You'll develop your craft and systems thinking while contributing meaningfully to an industry-leading metaverse platform — and in doing so, help fuel the creativity of players around the world. You will: • Own design work on Discovery projects end-to-end, operating with autonomy while proactively seeking guidance from senior teammates and your manager to sharpen your approach. • Develop a strong understanding of user needs, behaviors, and motivations — grounding design decisions in research, analytics, and user feedback. • Create visually compelling, intuitive user interfaces across devices and surfaces for a global audience, with care for craft and quality at every stage. • Translate high-level product goals into clear, actionable design tasks and workflows, outlining a path to objectives and validating plans with senior teammates. • Collaborate with the Design Systems team to apply existing patterns and UI components consistently, and contribute feedback to help evolve the system. • Identify gaps in your knowledge and proactively address them — combining self-directed problem solving with collaborative refinement. • Anticipate potential downstream impacts of your design decisions within your pod, and flag tradeoffs early to mitigate unintended consequences. • Partner with engineering by delivering well-considered design specs, and stay engaged through implementation to maintain quality. • Support and guide more junior colleagues on projects, share your perspective in ideation sessions, and help cultivate a collaborative team culture. • Build cross-functional relationships and begin to understand how your work connects to — and affects — teams and systems beyond your immediate pod. • Contribute to design reviews and present your work clearly, incorporating feedback to refine and strengthen outcomes. You have: • A bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in Product Design, User Experience Design, Fine Arts, Graphic Design, or a related field. • 3–5 years of experience in UX/UI design, with a portfolio demonstrating strong visual design skills and user-centered thinking across consumer products. • Proficiency in design tools such as Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, or similar software. • A solid understanding of user-centered design principles and best practices, with the ability to apply them independently on defined projects. • Emerging systems thinking — an ability to connect your work to broader product patterns and longer-term team goals, with guidance from senior teammates. • An analytical mindset: you critically evaluate inputs from multiple sources and integrate insights into your design decisions. • Experience using data and user feedback to identify pain points and iterate on solutions. • Effective collaboration skills and a track record of working well across disciplines; you're a dependable partner to peers, engineers, and PMs. • A genuine passion for gaming, interactive media, or user-generated content platforms — and curiosity about what makes discovery experiences feel magical. • A keen interest in industry trends and emerging design practices, with awareness of how they might inform your work.
