Do you want to work with truly massive data volumes, build cutting-edge AI models, and make a real impact in one of Sweden’s largest retail ecosystems?

About The Position

We are now looking for a Data Scientist to join our growing AI team. You will be part of a small, high-impact unit within a large organization, where your work will be visible, valued, and directly shape how we operate across Sweden. Our focus is on developing AI solutions that help Coop save time and money, improve health, and provide sustainable food for millions of customers.

Our environment is fully cloud-based and built for experimentation and large-scale production.

You’ll collaborate closely with data engineers/analysts and other scientists, working end-to-end, from defining business problems to deploying models in production and monitoring their impact.

  • Build and deploy advanced ML and AI models that solve real business problems - from demand forecasting and assortment optimization to personalization and logistics.
  • Translate business challenges into AI solutions that drive measurable impact.
  • Work hands-on with Azure and Spark, handling massive datasets with ease.
  • Collaborate closely with data engineers, analysts and business stakeholders - to ensure models are implemented and adopted successfully .
  • Contribute to a culture of sharing and learning by exchanging ideas, discussing new research, and improving how we work.
  • Communicate insights and technical concepts clearly, adapting your message to both technical and non-technical audiences.

Who are you?

You are a curious and driven Data Scientist who combines strong analytical skills with a genuine desire to turn data into real business impact. With solid experience in the field, you’ve learned how to balance technical depth with practical delivery, and you know when to explore, when to iterate, and when to ship.

You thrive in an environment where collaboration and ownership go hand in hand. At Coop, we value people who are humble yet ambitious, who bring ideas to the table, and who believe that progress happens when everyone contributes. You’re a strong communicator and someone who can explain complex concepts clearly, work closely with colleagues across disciplines, and help translate data into decisions that matter.

Must Have

  • Proven experience building and deploying machine learning and deep learning models in production
  • Strong programming skills in Python and Spark
  • Experience working in cloud-based environments (e.g. Azure, AWS, or GCP)
  • Proficiency with Git and version control in collaborative settings
  • Experience with deep learning frameworks such as PyTorch

Nice to have

  • Experience applying or fine-tuning LLMs for data enrichment, classification, or automation use cases
  • Experience deploying models using MLOps principles
  • Hands-on experience in Databricks
  • Exposure to large-scale datasets and distributed computing
  • Interest or background in retail, e-commerce, or supply chain analytics

Fluency in both spoken and written English is required, while proficiency in Swedish is a strong plus.

What We Offer You

At Coop, you’ll join a company with an enormous amount of data and endless opportunities to innovate. You’ll get the freedom to experiment, the trust to take ownership, and the satisfaction of seeing your work make a difference, from how we serve our customers to how we run our business.

We work in a hybrid model where you’ll spend around three days per week at our Solna headquarters.
