Abstract [en]

This chapter explores recent transformations of the practices and professionals of the Swedish signal intelligence service, FRA – an agency that has been in a process of significant expansion in recent years. It does so by analysing an archive of job advertisements collected between 2022 and 2023, pertaining to the agency’s “signals intelligence”, “technology”, and “cyber activities” sections. Viewing FRA as an emerging “multi-professional organization” harbouring an increasingly diverse set of professional roles, the chapter finds that the agency not only targets intelligence analysts in its recent recruitments but also seeks to mobilize the new generation of Swedish “tech talents” e.g. programming, computer engineering, data science, systems development, and IT. This indicates that FRA’s professional disposition has grown distinctly “plural” in how its main expertise is focused not simply on threat analysis, but also increasingly on developing digital means of data extraction and collection. Its core operation seems driven just as much by technocratic logics as it is by “national security”. As such, FRA has come to see, think, and act increasingly like a “big tech” firm.
