Riot Client is the gateway for millions players to play, discover, and install Riot games. Every single player goes through the Riot Client on their way to experience one of Riot’s games, and ensuring their needs, whether they be providing more ways to discover games, engage with Riot’s culture & community, or getting into their game as fast as possible, is the primary goal of the Riot Client team. Introduced in 2021, the multi-game Riot Client is becoming a destination for players to engage with Riot games, events and communities.
As a Principal Software Engineer, you will be the Tech Lead on the Riot Client team. As a tech lead, you will be responsible for driving technical excellence and long term technical direction for the team, ensuring high-quality deliverables, and fostering a collaborative and innovative work environment. You will play a crucial role in guiding and mentoring our engineering team through the software development lifecycle. You will partner with different disciplines, and collaborate across teams and organizations at Riot to deliver the best player experience with sound architecture decisions. Your work will be instrumental for Riot’s out-of-game ecosystem to be successful by unlocking Riot Client’s next level of capabilities for game distribution, content, social and internal developer efficiency.
For this role, you'll find success through craft expertise, a collaborative spirit, and decision-making that prioritizes your fellow Rioters, who are the customers of your work. Being a dedicated fan of games is not necessary for this position!
