About Aviagames

Aviagames, Inc. is a global leader in the skill-based gaming industry, known for delivering engaging, competitive, and innovative mobile gaming experiences. We operate at a fast pace, facing cutting-edge legal and regulatory issues across intellectual property, consumer protection, privacy, commercial disputes, and more. Join our dynamic and collaborative team, where your work will directly shape the future of competitive gaming.

Position Summary

Aviagames is seeking a Senior Litigation Counsel to manage and oversee a broad spectrum of complex litigation matters, including intellectual property disputes, consumer class actions, commercial litigation, regulatory inquiries, and other contentious matters. This role requires a seasoned litigator who is both strategic and practical—someone who knows when to fight aggressively and when a conciliatory approach serves the company's interests.

You will work closely with senior executives, outside counsel, and cross-functional partners to craft litigation strategy, manage risk, and maintain compliance. This is an exceptional opportunity for someone energized by high-stakes issues and the fast-moving technology and gaming ecosystem.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and manage all phases of a wide range of litigation matters, including IP litigation, consumer class actions, commercial litigation, and regulatory actions.
  • Develop and execute effective litigation strategies aligned with business goals.
  • Direct and supervise outside counsel, including matter budgeting, case assessments, filings, discovery, and trial preparation.
  • Work cross-functionally with internal teams (product, compliance, engineering, marketing, and leadership) to gather facts, assess risks, and provide strategic legal advice.
  • Evaluate claims and demand letters; oversee responses and negotiate favorable resolutions when appropriate.
  • Prepare executives and employees for depositions, discovery, and testimony.
  • Support internal investigations and compliance initiatives as needed.
  • Manage e-discovery, document retention, and litigation preparedness.
  • Advise on risk mitigation and help strengthen company policies and procedures.

Required Qualifications

  • J.D. degree from an accredited law school; admitted to practice in California or eligible for in-house registration.
  • 7+ years of litigation experience, preferably including trial experience, at a major law firm, government agency, or comparable litigation-focused environment.
  • Demonstrated experience with complex litigation, including at least one of :
  • IP litigation (patent, copyright, trademark, trade secrets)
  • Regulatory actions
  • Class-action defense
  • Commercial / business litigation
  • Strong strategic thinking skills with the ability to assess litigation risk and craft creative solutions.
  • Ability to move seamlessly between aggressive litigation postures and pragmatic, business-focused compromise.
  • Excellent writing, advocacy, negotiation, and communication skills.
  • Experience managing outside counsel and litigation budgets.
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • Prosecutorial or government enforcement experience (federal or state) is a significant plus.
  • Litigation experience in technology or gaming industries.
  • Spoken Mandarin / Chinese language skills helpful, but not required.
  • Prior in-house experience is helpful but not required.
  • What We Offer

  • Competitive compensation and equity package.
  • Comprehensive health, wellness, and retirement benefits.
  • Opportunity to work in a fast-growing industry shaping the future of skill-based gaming.
  • Highly collaborative and entrepreneurial work culture.
