Job Details

Riot Games was established in 2006 by entrepreneurial gamers who believe that player-focused game development can result in great games. In 2009, Riot released its debut title League of Legends to critical and player acclaim. As the most played video game in the world, over 100 million play every month. Players form the foundation of our community and it’s for them that we continue to evolve and improve the League of Legends experience.

We’re looking for humble but ambitious, razor-sharp professionals who can teach us a thing or two. We promise to return the favor. Like us, you take play seriously; you’re passionate about games. We embrace those who see things differently, aren’t afraid to experiment, and who have a healthy disregard for constraints.

That's where you come in.

At Riot, we believe Quality is a set of values, practices, and behaviors that inform every part of the development process. By honing our craft of quality and demonstrating cross-discipline partnerships, we help Riot sustainably craft excellent experiences for players, globally.

QA Engineers are champions for quality, focused on testing to ensure best in practice . We create test plans and evaluate both the functional and subjective caliber of projects for a Riot development team. As every project is different, we listen and improve, to put the players and their team first, and to solve ambiguous and complex problems. Most importantly, it's our passion and love for quality that ensures that QA Engineers help us level up and improve our processes, giving players the best experiences while playing our games.

As a QA Engineer – Compliance & Release, you’ll lead the quality efforts for Wild Rift’s platform releases. You’ll shape how Riot handles platform certification, compliance reviews, and release readiness, owning the QA strategy that ensures players get a seamless experience — whether they’re downloading a patch, launching the game, or engaging with live service content.

You’ll collaborate across teams to define testing standards, coach others on execution, and act as a key stakeholder for release quality. This role is pivotal in protecting player trust, and will challenge you to think globally, systemically, and strategically.

To reinforce Riot’s collaborative culture in our China offices, we’ve decided to do away with the constraints of traditional hierarchical title structures that are more common in the region. Titles don’t really matter at any of Riot’s offices, but we chose to take this extra step in our China offices to foster a space where teamwork thrives. We believe that removing this constraint will promote individual autonomy, ownership, collaboration, and a focus on results. We promise you won’t need a title at Riot to make an impact.

Responsibilities:

  • Own the release QA process - from submission readiness to first-party certification and launch test
  • Collaborate with the stakeholders to enhance the assets/build delivery pipelines to ensure related QA testing running smoothly
  • Drive the compliance testing (Age Rating, EULA, Regional compliance, etc) implementation along with the partner FQA team
  • Define best practices for platform testing, compliance, and regression across builds
  • Partner with product teams to align test plans to platform cert requirements and live player needs.
  • Be the QA expert on first-party platforms (App Store, Google Play, console) — including submission processes.
  • Establish and track release quality metrics; drive data-informed decisions with partners
  • Lead and mentor other QA engineers, including reviewing test suite and monitoring execution
  • Coordinate external testing vendors to ensure output meets Riot quality bar
  • Communicate quality risks clearly and influence prioritization with production and engineering partners
  • Represent the voice of the player in product readiness conversations

Required Qualifications:

  • 8+ years in software or game QA, with multiple product launches in live environments
  • Experience with platform compliance and certification submissions
  • Track record of implementing scalable QA processes and best practices
  • Strong ability to coach junior QA teammates and influence across teams
  • Familiarity with test metrics and reporting workflows
  • Comfortable owning vendor relationships and delivering through external partners
  • Fluent in Mandarin and English
  • Strong communication and stakeholder alignment skills

Desired Qualifications:

  • QA experience across multiple platforms (mobile, console, PC)
  • Exposure to age rating, 1st party submissions, and regional compliances
  • Preferred Licenses/certifications:
    • ISTQB Foundation Level
    • ISTQB Agile Tester or ICAgile Agile Testing (ICP-TST)
    • ISTQB Expert Level
    • ISTQB Advanced Test Manager
    • ICAgile Test Expert (ICE-AT)

Don’t forget to include a resume and cover letter. We receive a lot of applications, but we’ll notice a fun, well-written intro that shows us you take play seriously.
