Riot Games was established in 2006 by entrepreneurial gamers who believe that player-focused game development can result in great games. In 2009, Riot released its debut title League of Legends to critical and player acclaim. As the most played PC game in the world, over 100 million play every month. Players form the foundation of our community and it’s for them that we continue to evolve and improve the League of Legends experience.

  • You have deep experience in informing and building release roadmaps, identifying essential path issues while pulling together strike forces to blast through barriers and ship content to players

For this role, you'll find success through craft expertise, a collaborative spirit, and decision-making that prioritizes the delight of players.
