## Description

STAFF SOFTWARE ENGINEER




THE ROLE



Lyrebird is hiring a Staff Software Engineer to set technical direction across our product. Our systems run real-time AI inside live clinical consults, where latency, accuracy and reliability can’t be traded away lightly. As we move into new markets and take on more of the clinical workflow, the architecture calls we make over the next year will either pay off over time or cost us. Your job is to make sure they pay off.



This role suits someone who goes looking for the hardest problem in the building instead of waiting to be handed it. You can sit with a messy question, work out what the real problem is, and come back with a decision and the reasoning behind it. You still write code, often, because sometimes that’s the fastest way to prove a point. You call out problems directly, including in your own designs, and you’d rather the engineers around you get better than come to depend on you.




ABOUT US



Every day in Australia, 10 people die from preventable medical errors. Not from incurable diseases, but from misdiagnosis, missed information, and clinicians making decisions under impossible pressure. At the centre of that failure is a doctor spending 40% of their day on paperwork instead of patients. Lyrebird is fixing that.

We turn real clinical conversations into accurate notes, automatically. From there, Lyrebird takes on the admin that follows: letters and documents, workflow automation, patient data pulled together from disconnected systems, and communication with patients and other clinicians. Thousands of clinicians acros
