Product Engineering Manager

Lyrebird Health builds AI tools that reduce the administrative burden on clinicians and improve the quality and accessibility of healthcare. Our platform is used daily by thousands of clinicians across multiple disciplines and continues to scale across markets including the UK.

As we grow, we're focused on building technology that is reliable, clinically safe, and capable of operating at national scale. At Lyrebird, we value clear thinking, ownership, and people who take responsibility for outcomes. We move quickly, solve hard problems, and care deeply about building systems that genuinely improve how healthcare works.

We're hiring a Product Engineering Manager to own the technical delivery of Lyrebird deployments across the UK. Lyrebird builds clinical AI used daily by frontline clinicians. As adoption grows across the NHS, we need strong engineering leadership to ensure deployments are delivered safely, predictably, and in a way that scales with the product.

This role sits at the intersection of engineering, product, and customer delivery. You'll lead the UK Forward Deployed Engineering team while staying close to the technical work, including integrations, deployment architecture, and complex production issues.

Your job is to translate what's been sold into something that works reliably in production. That means defining integration approaches, sequencing deployments across customers, and ensuring implementation work strengthens the core platform rather than creating one-off solutions. Alongside delivery ownership, you'll manage a small team of Forward Deployed Engineers and set the standard for how technical delivery operates in the UK.
