In a nutshell
As an expert with a focus on Artificial Intelligence, you actively help shape the audit of information and, in particular, AI-based systems in development and operation. In an environment where algorithmic decisions increasingly direct public funds and services, you assess model quality, data integrity, traceability, and compliance. You audit whether systems are used reliably, fairly, transparently, and lawfully -- from the training data basis to the ongoing monitoring in productive operation. At the EFK, you combine conceptual and technical AI expertise with auditing methodology and social responsibility in a motivated cross-functional team. Your work strengthens trust in the use of AI by the state, protects public resources, and has a direct, sustainable, and meaningful impact.

Everything except ordinary
We at the Eidgenössische Finanzkontrolle are the supreme financial supervisory body of the Confederation. We audit whether the administration uses federal funds in compliance with the law, economically, and effectively. In addition, we are also the independent contact point for the Confederation for whistleblowing. In this way, we support Parliament and the Federal Council in exercising their supervision over the administration. We not only have extraordinarily exciting tasks, we are also an extraordinary employer. Because what you do here is important for the Switzerland success model. You look closely and ensure that tax money is used effectively. We are an organization with a clear structure and short paths. Here you will meet 140 other smart minds with interesting biographies who work with you on complex projects. That's how work is fun! In small, individually assembled teams, we conduct over 150 audits per year. In doing so, we repeatedly enter new territory and audit the handling of topics that move Switzerland. In addition to broad specialist knowledge and a good general education, a good dose of intuition and curiosity is also required here.
