About the role

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. As a Program Manager on the VALORANT Mobile team, you will help the team operate more effectively across Riot partners and external development partners. This role is centered on program leadership rather than direct feature review or product ownership.

A key part of this role will be partnering closely with Riot stakeholders to improve our greenlight process for feature and content development, enabling both sides to work with stronger transparency, clearer ownership, and more efficient decision-making.
