Product Designer, Discovery at Roblox in San Mateo, CA

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 will:

• 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.
