About the Role

You will establish clear plans, manage dependencies, identify and mitigate delivery risks, and guide work through development, launch, and post-launch evaluation.

You will collaborate with Product Owners, Game Designers, Insights, Creative, Publishing, and external development partners to align priorities, coordinate execution, and make informed tradeoffs across scope, quality, timelines, and team capacity. Beyond managing delivery, you will continuously improve the processes and operating practices that help teams plan effectively, make decisions, and deliver sustainable results.

You will report into the Director, Game Production of the team.

Responsibilities

  • Own end-to-end production and delivery for gameplay initiatives, from requirements and strategic alignment through design, development, testing, launch, and post-launch evaluation.
  • Translate product and gameplay priorities into actionable delivery plans with clear scope, milestones, ownership, dependencies, decision points, and launch criteria, aligning commitments with team capacity.
  • Establish and facilitate effective production practices, including project planning, milestone reviews, risk assessments, launch readiness reviews, and retrospectives.
  • Proactively identify and manage delivery risks, blockers, dependencies, and unresolved decisions; drive mitigation and escalation while maintaining clear visibility into progress, risks, decisions, and delivery health for team leadership and stakeholders.
  • Partner with Product Owners, Game Designers, and cross-functional teams to align product intent, design priorities, implementation requirements, acceptance criteria, and delivery plans.
  • Coordinate execution across Riot teams, external development partners, disciplines, and regions, establishing clear ownership, communication paths, and accountability.
  • Evaluate and manage tradeoffs across scope, schedule, quality, resources, and team sustainability; recommend phased delivery, contingency plans, or adjustments when needed.
  • Continuously improve development workflows, production processes, and team operating practices using delivery metrics, team feedback, and post-launch learnings to improve predictability, effectiveness, and sustainable delivery.

Required Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience in game development, game production, program management, project management, or a related field, including experience leading delivery across multiple stakeholders.
  • Experience applying project management fundamentals, including scope, scheduling, cost, quality, risk, dependency management, and launch readiness.
  • Experience selecting and applying appropriate planning tools, methodologies, workflows, and project management practices based on team and project needs.
  • Experience maintaining and improving production processes, team operating practices, and project management frameworks.
  • Experience navigating ambiguity, identifying and mitigating delivery risks, resolving blockers, and establishing clear plans and processes for complex initiatives.
  • Experience communicating project status, facilitating cross-functional alignment, resolving stakeholder dependencies, and influencing decisions across teams without direct authority.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience managing production and delivery for a complete gameplay module or player-facing gameplay system, ideally in a live-service, mobile, multiplayer, or frequently updated game.
  • Experience collaborating with co-development or external development partners across companies or regions; professional working proficiency in both Chinese and English is a plus.
  • Experience using delivery metrics, stakeholder feedback, and post-launch outcomes to improve production processes, planning effectiveness, and team performance.
