About Us

We are a Las Vegas based game studio born on the Roblox platform and built by people who genuinely love this community. As a community-first studio, we care as much about our worlds and players as we do about the people building them. That mindset has helped us grow into one of the most innovative teams on Roblox, pushing boundaries, shaping culture, and setting new standards across the platform.

With over 7B game visits, 35M monthly players, and a 16M member community, our worlds have become a core part of the Roblox ecosystem. We’re a ten time winner of the Roblox Innovation Awards and recognized as builders of the future of the platform. From Creatures of Sonaria and Dragon Adventures to World // Zero and Horse Life, we create experiences that players live in, not just visit.

You’ll work closely with designers, artists, and other engineers to build scalable, maintainable gameplay systems, mentor teammates through code reviews and collaboration, and ensure our games remain performant, extensible, and player-first. If you enjoy solving hard technical problems and elevating the quality of work around you, this role is for you.

• Own the design and implementation of complex or foundational gameplay systems.
• Help define and enforce engineering best practices, patterns, and performance standards.
• Review code and provide technical guidance to other engineers.
• Partner with designers early to scope features realistically and identify technical risks.
• Proactively identify technical debt and propose improvements or refactors.
• Mentor and grow the next generation of engineering talent within Twin Atlas.
