  • Strong hands-on or architectural experience with AI and ML development, data engineering, and deployment of AI solutions into production.

  • Strong understanding of modern AI technology stacks, platforms, and operating models (e.g. cloud, MLOps, scalable data platforms). 

  • Commercial mindset, including experience supporting business development, shaping offerings, and growing client relationships. 

  • Professional fluency in English and Czech.

  • 35 - 42 days (depending on the seniority) of paid time off, including three - five well-being days and two additional days off at the end of the year. 

  • An opportunity to give back to the community with one paid volunteering day every year. 

  • The chance to work from one of PwC’s international offices (available from the Senior Associate level). 

  • We support your learning and development journey: We offer training in business skills (such as presentation and communication skills, assertiveness, and giving feedback) as well as digital skills (including Alteryx, Power BI, and AI). Our technical training will help you understand the full deals transaction lifecycle and how to present our findings to clients in a clear and impactful way. We also cover the cost of professional certifications, such as CFA. 

  • A buddy programme, regular feedback, and access to a coach who can support your professional development and career path. 

  • Extensive well-being support and initiatives promoting a healthy lifestyle, from Dr. Digital and Human Dynamic programmes to workplace yoga and running events. 

  • An ultrabook and an iPhone with unlimited data. 

  • Social events and Away Days.   

At PwC, we help clients solve today’s and tomorrow’s challenges across audit, consulting, tax, legal, technology, and data. We create an environment where people can learn, grow, and build a career in their own way. We believe the best results come from diverse experiences and perspectives.
