As a Game Designer, you will design, tweak, and optimize the player experience. Your analytical skills, player insight, and creativity aid in crafting in- and out-of-game experiences that engage and surprise players. You will collaborate with interdisciplinary teams and work with every tool at hand to innovate and iterate player-focused designs that'll delight millions around the world.

As a Principal Game Designer working centrally across the entire Global Riot Games Pillar, you will help decipher Riot’s next big bets, specifically in the monetization space. You will work to build monetization (and interdependent systems, like progression) from the ground up for games in every stage of their life cycle, from R&D Prototype to globally shipped live games. Together with Team Leads, Product Managers and Systems Designers, you will work to maximize our business outcomes without compromising on what makes our games world-class in terms of fun, engagement, and player-focus. You will help solve the highest impact monetization design problems across our entire portfolio of games, through direct effort or in collaboration with stakeholders and designers on the game teams. You are comfortable operating in an ambiguous environment where goals and constraints are mostly team driven and where change, big and small, is a critical part of the process. You will balance meaningfully engaging with, questioning, and leveling up the product strategy especially as it intersects with monetization, while simultaneously inheriting and championing the game vision as stated by the team.

As one of the most senior designers at Riot Shanghai, you will be responsible for truly understanding the markets and players within China and helping to drive our future games to be as amazing as possible for our Chinese fans. You will be given the opportunity to drive Riot culture and approach to monetization, especially in China, and in turn have the chance to leave a large footprint on the global games market. You will report to the Head of Operations for Riot China Game Studio.
