Hello Developers!

My name is Mr_Purrsalot, and I recently joined Roblox as a Senior Software Engineer to help you make amazing games.

Background

I started programming in the 1980’s, and I have a lifetime love of hardware and software. The computer landscape keeps changing, and I keep learning new things. My children introduced me to Roblox, and I was thrilled to be offered the chance to work on this amazing platform.

What do you do at Roblox?

I work on tools. You make the game. I make tools to help you make games even better. I will be building, fixing, and designing new tools that help you get the most out of the platform, starting with security - protecting your UGC assets from copycats and preventing certain exploits from working. Security is a very cat and mouse game, so I won’t go into any more details than that.

Anything else?

You may from time to time find me in your games like one of the Roblox Video Stars did, and so I had an unanticipated cameo in his video… So I guess I’m already internet famous.

Meow for now!

Mr_Purrsalot
