Data Scientist
You know that bit where every company says they’re “changing the world”? Yeah, it can feel a little forced. But we like to think our story actually has some realness to it.
Our story begins with Shadi Bitar and Ninos Malki, who came to Sweden from Syria as kids and discovered that books could be a bridge - helping them learn the language, understand the culture, and explore new worlds.
A thought emerged, what if everyone could have that? And just like that, Nextory was born - your all-access pass to read, listen, and discover new perspectives without limits.
And now, we're on a quest to find a Data Scientist.
Let us tell you about the role 📖
As a Data Scientist at Nextory, you will be part of our centralized data team, supporting our Business value stream with an analytical mindset and tech-savvy approach to drive sustainable subscriber growth. You will work closely with stakeholders across Business, Marketing, and Product to create data-driven insights and models that improve decision-making and business performance.
Some examples of what you might be spending your time on:
Owning projections and forecasts related to activations and new paying subscribers
Supporting budgeting, forecasting, and ad hoc business analysis with actionable insights
Building and improving Nextory’s central data capabilities and ways of working
Supporting the Performance Marketing team with MMM, attribution models, and other analytical frameworks to improve marketing efficiency
Drive data-informed growth by analyzing user behavior, optimizing funnels, and running A/B tests to improve acquisition and conversion.
Build dashboards, reporting tools, and measurement frameworks in collaboration with Product and Business to provide clear performance insights and support Nextory’s growth strategy.
The main character we’re looking for 👀

Several years of experience working as a Data Scientist or Data Analyst
Strong knowledge of SQL and Python
Experience working with performance marketing, attribution modeling, Marketing Mix Modeling (MMM), or related analytical methods
Good understanding of digital marketing channels such as Google Ads, Meta, SEO, and online customer acquisition
Experience building dashboards or working with BI tools (e.g. Looker, Tableau, or similar)
The Nextory way of working 🏠
At Nextory, we believe a strong and inclusive culture is key to our success - and that culture flourishes when we meet and collaborate in person as much as possible. That’s why we spend the majority of the working time at our beautiful office!
