WHO YOU'LL WORK WITH
You’ll work with one of our Vietnam offices and join McKinsey Digital for about 8 weeks.
As part of McKinsey Digital, you’ll join a global team working on everything from IT modernization and strategy to agile, cloud, cybersecurity and digital transformation. You’ll typically work on projects across all industries and functions and will be fully integrated with the rest of our global firm. You’ll also work with colleagues from across McKinsey & Company to help our clients deliver breakthrough products, experiences and businesses, both on technology and non-technology topics.
We combine unparalleled business knowledge with a world-class agile development process to offer distinctive support for enterprise IT enablement. Our highly skilled system architects and development managers configure software packages and build custom applications, creating the foundation for rapid and cost-effective implementation of systems that maximize value from day one.
Our development teams are small, flexible and employ agile methodologies to quickly provide our consultants with the solutions they need. We combine the latest open source technologies together with traditional Enterprise software products. This group brings together the best of McKinsey’s digital capabilities to help our clients use digital technology to transform their businesses.
Our office culture is casual and social, with an emphasis on education and innovation. We have the freedom to try new ideas, experiment and are expected to be constantly learning and growing. There is also a strong emphasis on mentoring others in the group, enabling them to grow and learn.

You will engage in some of the most challenging business problems facing our clients. These projects can range from rapid process re-inventions at leading financial institutions, ‘big data analytics at large scale retail organizations, to consumer-facing app development for traditional industries. In each situation, you will typically be at the center of the problem solving, advising our most senior clients on how to successfully execute their strategic vision with digital means.
You will be well versed in all aspects of the product, process and technology. You will be at the intersection of business strategy, client and implementation vendors and you'll be responsible for translating abstract visions into reality while managing the client’s expectations and the vendor’s work efficiency.
You will also be proficient in all aspects of the agile deliverables required for a technology team to build products. This includes hands-on development of storyboards, wireframes, product backlog, user stories and acceptance criteria.
