I'm in Prague but not Czech. Tech scene here is strong. Good technical schools and almost all of the major players have offices here - Microsoft (Skype team), SAP, AWS, Google. A lot of startups too and a few game studios. If you're a Senior dev you can expect to make at most about 60-80k USD / year, more typically 50-60k. Managers can make more but no one makes Amazon USA type salaries here.

I work remote freelance for US companies and charge USD, so that could be an option too if you are coming from there. Not sure what you define as "interesting or cool" for work but I would imagine you can find it.

> I'm in Prague but not Czech

I should have added this in the question. If you don't mind my asking how long have you lived in Prague and where did you emigrate from? Thanks for the links... I'd love to find a job in Prague.

I'm from the good 'ol USA - been here for 6 years. My partner is Czech so it was easy for me to get a visa and then permanent residence. If you are coming here without a Czech partner and no job you need to consider how you'll get a Visa to stay - if you are Schengen then it's not an issue.
