ČSOB Finančná skupina operates Slovakia's largest integrated financial services network—combining retail banking, insurance, leasing, and asset management under one organization. The tech stack is heavily AWS-native (.NET + REST APIs + Lambda + ECS/EKS + RDS), with active infrastructure-as-code (Terraform) and recent AI/LLM integration work. Engineering hiring is concentrated in mid-level roles, and the project backlog reveals a company in active cloud migration: modernizing legacy applications, building API-driven cloud data solutions, and launching new digital banking channels (smartbanking, moja čsob)—while tackling cloud security and availability as operational blockers.
