As a delivery-focused Producer on the Riot Client team you will partner with the Riot Client Product Lead to deliver and improve upon Riot's desktop client which is the gateway to launching all of Riot's PC games. You will be the custodian of strong delivery processes internal to the team and ensure that collaboration with other teams runs smoothly.

You will also ensure the team works at a sustainable pace and continuously improves. You will report to the Player Experience Initiative Delivery Lead.

Responsibilities:
• Co-lead a cross-functional development team to deliver features in the desktop space that also work cohesively across games and in other out-of-game channels (mobile, console, web).
• Manage and improve work systems, team performance metrics, and goals setting.
• Identify misalignment areas in development and develop risk mitigation plans.

For this role, you'll find success through craft expertise, a collaborative spirit, and making value calls that prioritize the delight of players. We will look at your past studies, experience, and the way you work with and lead others. If you embody player empathy, care about the experiences of players, and spend time thinking about how to build a healthy team, this could be the role for you!
