Game Producer - Gameplay

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 video 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.

We’re looking for humble but ambitious, razor-sharp professionals who can teach us a thing or two. We promise to return the favor. Like us, you take play seriously; you’re passionate about games. We embrace those who see things differently, aren’t afraid to experiment, and who have a healthy disregard for constraints.

That's where you come in.

Required Qualifications:

• 5+ years of experience in game development, game production, program management, project management, or a related field, including experience leading delivery across multiple stakeholders.

• Experience navigating ambiguity, identifying and mitigating delivery risks, resolving blockers, and establishing clear plans and processes for complex initiatives.
• Experience communicating project status, facilitating cross-functional alignment, resolving stakeholder dependencies, and influencing decisions across teams without direct authority.
