Job description
Riot Games Esports is setting the standard for the industry. We're looking for passionate individuals with a desire to build products that serve as a gateway to sports fandom. As a Staff Software Engineer in the Esports Platforms team, you will work with a team of producers, designers, and engineers to prototype, build, and own products to foster the Esports ecosystem. The web application this role owns, develops, and maintains sits at the heart of Riot Esports. You'll shape the experience of professional and amateur competitive players, from tournament creation to the most exciting moments, such as getting into a match.
Responsibilities:
- Drive the development of Esports applications primarily using web technologies, while integrating with Esports and Game Services, providing technical guidance and hands-on code contributions
- Provide technical leadership within the team and adjacent teams to deliver high-quality, scalable, and reliable engineering solutions
- Contribute to technical planning and architecture decisions, balancing long-term sustainability with near-term delivery needs
- Partner closely with cross-functional partners (product, production, QA, design, data) to deliver great Esports experiences
- Mentor other engineers on technical and interpersonal skills
- Write clear documentation and communicate technical details across disciplines
- Participate in the on-call rotation, triage & resolve live incidents and propose solutions through RCAs
- 6+ years of industry experience in software engineering, with demonstrated technical leadership on complex projects
- Bachelor's, Master's degree in Computer Science or a related field, or comparable experience in software development.
- Strong proficiency with web technologies, with working experience in Typescript, React & NextJS
- Have been responsible for driving the design and leading of development of large-sized efforts (6-month+ scope), including requirements gathering, planning, development, testing, and release
- Solid communication and collaboration skills, with experience working across disciplines and teams
- Demonstrated examples of setting engineering policy and standards across teams or initiative
- Experience with PaaS Vendors like Netlify or Vercel
- Experience with GraphQL
- Experience with test automation frameworks like Playwright or Cypress
- Familiarity with Riot's Esports titles
- Familiarity with tournaments and tournament formats
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!
Our Perks:
Riot focuses on work/life balance, shown by our open paid time off policy and other perks such as flexible work schedules. We offer medical, dental, and life insurance, parental leave for you, your spouse/domestic partner, and children, and a 401k with company match. Check out our benefits pages for more information.
At Riot Games, we put players first. That mission drives every decision in our quest to create games and experiences that make it better to be a player. Whether you're working directly on a new player-facing experience or you're supporting the company as a whole, everyone at Riot is part of our mission. And just like in our games, we're better when we work together. Our goal is to create collaborative teams where you are empowered to bring your unique perspective everyday. If that sounds like the kind of place you want to work, we're looking forward to your application.
It's our policy to provide equal employment opportunity for all applicants and members of Riot Games, Inc.

Per the Los Angeles County Fair Chance Ordinance, the following core duties may create a basis for disqualifying candidates with relevant criminal histories:
- Safeguarding confidential and sensitive Company data
- Communication with others, including Rioters and third parties such as vendors, and/or players, including minors
- Accessing Company assets, secure digital systems, and networks
- Ensuring a safe interactive environment for players and other Rioters
These duties are directly related to essential operations, safety, trust, and compliance obligations within our organization. Please note that job duties may evolve based on business needs and additional responsibilities may be assigned as necessary to maintain operational efficiency and security.
(Los Angeles Only) Base salary range between $192,500.00 - $269,400.00 USD + incentive compensation + equity + 401K with company match + medical, dental, vision, and life insurance + short and long-term disability + open PTO.
