Responsibilities

Help our team continue to develop an innovative gradual type system for Luau that leverages key ideas from the past few decades of programming languages research including semantic sub-typing, e-graphs, and type functions

Develop new language features that extend the realm of what’s possible and what’s productive for our creators while retaining Luau’s identity as a language built around small, powerful and reusable primitives

Improve the usability of the type system for all users, ranging from beginners who are unfamiliar with what types even are to professional developers with decades of experience.

Collaborate with engineers across several engineering organizations ranging from the teams developing Roblox’s application in Luau to the teams developing the Roblox Studio IDE for creators to the engine itself.
