What do IT Specialists do?

A car manufacturer without information technology is like a car without wheels. It won't get far without them. Explore the possibilities of vehicle personalization, advance automation, or design systems that are essential for production, warehousing, and our dealer network. You will collaborate with experts from across the company and the Volkswagen group. Discover what unprecedented connections of expertise can bring. Who knows, perhaps one day, a self-driving car will get off the line, and you will be the first to test it on the road... Let's not predict the future, but create it.

What abilities you should have?

Communicate quickly and effectively. Keep a cool head even when errors arise. Stay updated on IT trends and have the desire to push the boundaries of human knowledge.

Škoda IT

Our IT department knows very well that what is advanced today will be outdated tomorrow. That’s why we constantly develop new and better solutions.

IT work is built on unique projects. Whether it's the development of electric vehicles, where we continually push the boundaries of the automotive industry, or work with virtual reality, where we are among European technological leaders. The footprints of Škoda IT can be found in almost every department—from technical development to production, sales, and employee care.

Technical Development

From the first sketch to the final tests. That’s how we would summarize the work of technical development, which plays a crucial role in the creation of every new Škoda Auto model.

At the heart of the department are teams of passionate professionals dedicated to each phase of vehicle development. Whether it’s the initial brief, planning, design, concept development, or the final crash tests and various trials, we always use the most advanced methods and technologies.

Engineering

This department is responsible for ensuring the smooth production of every vehicle. It all starts with the logistics of materials, parts, and components and ends with their assembly. But that’s not all. We design and implement new technologies to bring vehicle electronics to life, transfer insights from extensive analyses into car assembly, or even into a new paint shop. We pride ourselves on using the best technologies and continuously create new positions that cover a wide range of opportunities across various fields.

Don’t Be Afraid to Change Careers. You Have More Transferable Skills Than You Think

Maria Soledad Garcia Navarro takes change seriously. A few years ago, she decided to change not only her country, but also her job and even the entire field she worked in. “I moved to the Czech Republic from Argentina, where I had worked as a freelance graphic designer my whole life,” she says. Maria chose IT as her next step after realizing that many of her skills were transferable. At Škoda Auto, she was given the opportunity to learn the rest along the way. What did that journey look like?

I Build Bridges Between Business and IT

Daniel Jablonský has spent virtually his entire professional life at the intersection of finance and IT.
