As a Data Engineer, you'll build data pipelines, maintain data models, and support analytics for product and finance teams while collaborating with stakeholders and improving data quality.
The Role
Lyrebird is building a trusted, scalable data platform to support how teams across the business make decisions. In this role, you’ll contribute to the development of data pipelines and analytics-ready tables, help maintain core data models, and support self-serve reporting used by product, finance, and go-to-market teams.
You’ll work alongside experienced data and engineering partners to turn business questions into clear, reliable data solutions, while learning best practices around data quality, testing, and observability as the platform grows.
This is a hands-on role for someone early in their data engineering career who enjoys writing code, learning modern data tools, and making data easier for others to use.
About Us
Lyrebird Health is transforming the quality and accessibility of healthcare by automating clinicians’ most time-consuming tasks. Thousands of clinicians across multiple disciplines use Lyrebird every day, and that number continues to grow rapidly.
Clinicians trust us to deliver a fast, reliable, and secure experience in high-pressure environments where accuracy matters. We take that responsibility seriously. Our focus is on earning and maintaining that trust while continuing to build products that genuinely improve how care is delivered.
We’re an ambitious, fast-moving team with a high bar for quality, clarity, and ownership. We value thoughtful decision-making, direct communication, and people who care deeply about the impact of their work.
What you'll do
- Build end-to-end data pipelines from source systems to analytics-ready tables.
- Design and maintain core data models that power product analytics, finance reporting, and dashboards.
- Work with cloud data warehouses (BigQuery, Snowflake, Databricks) to deliver scalable solutions.
- Use code-based transformation tools (e.g. dbt, AWS Glue) to create reliable, tested data models.
- Collaborate closely with product, engineering, and business stakeholders to understand requirements and define data solutions.
- Enable self-serve analytics by supporting BI tools like Looker, Sigma, and SQL-based reporting.
- Contribute to CI/CD pipelines for data using GitHub and GitHub Actions.
- Improve data quality, reliability, and observability as the platform scales.
What you'll bring
- Strong fundamentals in SQL and Python.
- Solid understanding of data warehousing and data modeling concepts.
- Hands-on experience building pipelines on cloud data warehouses (BigQuery, Snowflake, or Databricks).
- Experience with code-driven data transformation tools (dbt, AWS Glue, or similar).
- Experience working with modern BI tools (Looker, Sigma, or SQL-based tools).
- Comfortable using GitHub for version control and GitHub Actions for CI/CD.
- Strong communication skills — able to clearly explain data concepts and trade-offs to both technical and non-technical audiences.
- Stakeholder management experience — comfortable gathering requirements, aligning on definitions, and managing expectations in a fast-moving environment.
Nice to have
- Experience with product analytics or event-based data.
- Exposure to finance or revenue data (subscriptions, billing, metrics).
- Familiarity with DataOps paractices and multi-environment deployments.
- Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or similar).
- Knowledge of data monitoring and observability tools.
At Lyrebird, you don’t just write code — we help shape the future of the human experience.

What you need to know about the Melbourne Tech Scene
Home to 650 biotech companies, 10 major research institutes and nine universities, Melbourne is among one of the top cities for biotech. In fact, some of the greatest medical advancements were conceptualized and developed here, including Symex Lab's "lab-on-a-chip" solution that monitors hormones to predict ovulation for conception, and Denteric's vaccine for periodontal gum disease. Yet, the thousands of people working in the city's healthtech sector are just getting started, to say nothing of the tech advancements across all other sectors.
