Job description

We’re always looking to add talented individuals to our team.

We’re always looking for talented people with a passion for the games industry to join Valve. The Steam Business team runs our platform and storefront, directly impacting millions of players worldwide and ensuring that it remains the best place for our partners to sell their games and for customers to buy and play them!

Our Steam Partner Technical Account Managers work on an exciting blend of software engineering, platform feature innovation, business development, and production. They collaborate with teams at Valve and partners around the world to publish and market content, create and maintain Steamworks documentation, develop Steam features, debug problems with Steam services, and build events and promotions. They ensure that games are well-integrated with Steam platform features and provide the best possible experience to customers. Our partners rely on us to assist with the integration of Steamworks features, business decisions, and general technical issues (both one-on-one and through open forums).

The Steam client and SDK are written in C++, so our team members all possess a strong understanding of that language as well as prior experience with game platform SDKs and game engines. Our team has excellent communication skills and presents technical issues to both lay and specialist audiences. They all have a clear focus on providing a high-quality customer experience.

Like most roles at Valve, we don't have headcount targets, we aren’t actively looking to fill an open position, and we don’t generally require specific credentials or qualifications. We’re just always looking for great people to hire.
