Senior

Design identity and access management for both humans and AI agents across Roblox's hybrid production infrastructure

Roblox's IAM team is hiring a Senior Security Software Engineer to build next-generation identity and access management, with a distinctive emphasis on defining how AI agents get credentials, scoped permissions, and session lifecycle management as first-class actors in production. The role spans workload authentication/authorization, PKI, PAM, and a secure 'golden path' framework for developers across on-prem and cloud infrastructure. Expect questions probing both classical IAM depth (RBAC/ABAC, PKI, SPIFFE/SPIRE-style workload identity) and genuinely novel reasoning about agentic identity design.

What this interview tests

  • Designing identity, scoped permissions, and session lifecycle for AI agents as production actors
  • Workload authentication/authorization at scale across hybrid (on-prem + cloud) infrastructure
  • PKI design/implementation and PAM for privileged, auditable access
  • Policy and identity frameworks: OPA, Topaz, SPIFFE/SPIRE, workload attestation
  • Access control models: RBAC vs ABAC vs risk-based, and least-privilege tradeoffs
  • Building a secure 'golden path' that developers actually adopt

Common question themes

How would you design identity, credentials, and session lifecycle for an AI agent operating in production

Tell me about a workload authentication/authorization system you built — what policy framework did you use and why

Walk through a PKI system you designed or maintained and a hard problem you solved in it

Describe implementing or operating a PAM solution — how did you balance control with auditability

How do you decide between RBAC, ABAC, and risk-based access control for a given system

Tell me about a security control you baked into a developer 'golden path' that teams actually adopted
