**WE MAKE FUN...FUNNER.**

We are Full Circle, and we're all about having fun and making great games that people want to play with their friends. As the developers of Skate, we are set to provide an experience that embraces and builds upon everything our community found special about the previous games. We believe in creating an inclusive world inside and outside of our games for our players and our team.

You will rely upon your soft skills to support artists, resolve issues, and aid in the daily operation of content production pipelines.

**Qualifications**:
**Experience**:
You should have at least 3 years of experience or have experience shipping at least one title from preproduction through post launch support, and you directly supported character development.
