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 PC 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. 

Intern with the Insights team!

As an Analyst Intern (MBA),you’ll join the Insights discipline – the group of researchers, analysts, data scientists and strategists responsible for solving problems and executing analyses that enable Rioters to make difficult decisions with confidence. You’ll provide a unique voice to players by using top-notch analytic skills to translate data from a variety of sources into narratives that describe their experiences and suggest the right way forward. Armed with these narratives, you’ll inform decisions across Riot and ensure that we make good on our mission to become the most player-focused game company in the world.

During the summer, you will:

• Work with various Insights and development teams to accurately frame, dissect, and analyze complex issues ranging from LoL gameplay to Riot corporate strategy
• Organize the data you’ve collected into reliable intel that informs Rioters about areas where we can improve the player experience
• Work with decision-makers across the company to understand their goals, identify opportunities, and inform decisions about products and features

For example:

• Investigate competitor trends to ascertain areas where League can improve its market position in the future
• Analyze the precursors to players leaving League for good, and develop a plan to improve long-term player retention
• Investigate the impact of a product campaign and help producers and publishers understand how to improve next time

To apply:

• Please read through the internship page before applying. It includes helpful information that’ll increase your chances at landing the gig.
• Your application must include a cover letter and resume. In your application pitch, share your Summoner Name and experience with League of Legends, why you’re interested in Riot, what you want to learn and what we can learn from you. Help us understand why you're right for this team by sharing what you've done that's truly above and beyond and how that may relate to this internship opportunity.

We recognize that a great internship application takes time and effort, so we promise to return the favor of your effort with a response by January 15th, 2019.
