Riot Client is the gateway to play for all of Riot's desktop experiences. Utilized by over 100 Million players across the globe to discover, install and play titles like League of Legends, VALORANT, Teamfight Tactics and more. We aspire to have Riot Client hyper serve players, providing them with the information they need to decide what they want to play, how they want to play it and with whom. As a Software Engineer on the Riot Client team, you'll create the desktop software that millions of players worldwide use to authenticate, install, patch, discover and launch Riot's games. Your work will be players' first touchpoint with the wide range of experiences that Riot has to offer - including League of Legends, VALORANT, Wild Rift, Teamfight Tactics, Legends of Runeterra, and beyond. You will allow players to discover new games from the Riot ecosystem, unlock content, and promote overall deeper engagement. You will report to the Engineering Manager of the Riot Client team.
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!
