Job Description - Engineering Manager - Account Security

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.


The Account Security (AccSec) pod sits within the Accounts team (part of the broader Safety organization) and is at the heart of building a safe and civil platform for users of all ages. Account Security is especially challenging at Roblox because it is open to all ages.


As the EM of AccSec pod (7+ ICs) you will work closely with peers throughout Roblox and the  creator community to reduce the impact of account takeover (i.e. compromise) for Roblox players, creators, and the broader community. This is a role that requires entrepreneurship. We are looking for the EM of the AccSec pod to, in collaboration with product partners, to formulate a strategy for how to reduce ATO, reduce the impact of any remaining ATO and build community trust in the security of their accounts.


Examples of past and current efforts include:



  • Cryptographically binding user secrets to hardware backed secrets.

  • Detecting client side tampering by Browser extensions.

  • Integration with Passkeys.

  • Post-login modeling for ATO detection.

  • Reducing incentives for bad actors by making assets more recoverable.


While this is a security team that focuses heavily on product and infrastructure changes to improve security, we also consult on privacy and security reviews where relevant to Account Security.


You Have: 



  • Experience in account security, identity, or fraud detection, or abuse detection. The person selected with this role needs to have a good sense of what good looks like with respect to detecting and mitigating account takeover.

  • A track record of leading teams as they land security or abuse fighting features from inception, to prioritization, to alignment, to implementation and finally launch.

  • Experience in people leadership. You have led (and grown) high-performing engineering teams.


You will:



  • Be entrepreneurial. The EM for AccSec will create (and present) Roblox’s ongoing Account Security strategy and define the roadmap for achieving that strategy (in collaboration with data science and product partners).

  • Exhibit technical depth. While your primary focus as an EM is mentoring and growing your engineers, it is expected that you will remain technically authoritative. We expect our engineering managers to be comfortable contributing code, leading rigorous architectural reviews, and diving deep into complex system challenges alongside your team.

  • Experiment. We try to be data informed and be intentional about when we make decisions in the absence of data.

  • Scale your impact. We have millions of concurrent players on the platform and 100M+ monthly active accounts. Some have millions of dollars worth of value on the platform. All need to be secured.
