Barcelona, in residence at the BSC AI Factory
Lyra places AI engineers in your company to build the AI tools and automations your team needs. They work in your own systems, document what they build and train your people as they go.
From €4,500 a month. The first month is half price. See pricing
Founded in Barcelona by Stephany Oliveros and Kristina Talova, Lyra began with free AI workshops for women in tech. It still trains women for technical AI roles.
Our storyCompanies we have worked with
Featured in and collaborating with
The first week is spent learning how your team works. Then your engineer builds and tests the tools that take recurring work off your plate.
We look at your systems, your team and your backlog, and name what an engineer could build first.
Review their profile and the work they have shipped before you commit to anything.
Your engineer joins your tools and your team. Lyra runs part of the onboarding with you.
AI engineers and CTOs assess every engineer’s technical skills, and an organisational psychologist checks how they work with a team. If the match is not right, Lyra replaces them.
An AI engineer who works inside your team and your tools, building and maintaining software that runs in production. Not a consultant who hands over a report and leaves.
From €4,500 a month for the standard engagement, with a six-month minimum. The first month is half price. Shorter projects and longer placements are scoped on the call.
Engineers are usually matched within days. Lyra runs part of the onboarding with you, so they are working in your systems quickly rather than months later.
You do. Everything is built on your own stack and documented as it is built, so you can take it in-house whenever you want.
Lyra replaces them with someone who is, and moves the original engineer to another project.
We look at your systems, your team and your backlog, and tell you what an embedded engineer could build for you first. No generic pitch.
Hands-on workshops for technical and non-technical teams, and advice from practising CTOs who still build every day. Your team leaves with ways of working it can apply the next morning.
“Lyra brought real structure to a conversation our leadership team needed to have about AI adoption.”
Alongside our engineering and training services, we are building Vega, a hiring agent that helps companies find and assess talent, with the reasoning behind every shortlist. In development: today, sourcing and screening run with a recruiter reviewing every match.

Both founders know what it means to have qualifications overlooked and skills underused. They built Lyra so companies find the talent their filters miss, and women are seen for what they can actually do.
