About Lightfin
Built by people who understand operations and engineering.
Lightfin is a new company standing on a long run of delivered systems — in industrial businesses, in US logistics, and in modern software products.
Founder
From the warehouse floor to the production system.
Dmytro Lukanov’s background crosses business process automation, system architecture, mobile products, infrastructure, high-volume data, engineering leadership, and running a business.
The useful part is not the list of technologies. It is being able to stand in an operation, understand the problem well enough to argue with it, and then deliver the entire system that solves it.
A consistent way of thinking
Three environments. One approach.
Transportation & logistics
Operational technology work at Skyline Transport Group, then co-founder and engineering lead at Verified Carrier — carrier verification, freight workflows, operational visibility, data, and integrations.
Product engineering
Native mobile applications, web platforms, portals, APIs, containerised infrastructure, and data systems — designed together rather than assembled.
Engineering depth
For the person asking the harder questions.
Systems that keep working as they grow
Operational systems get slower in specific, predictable ways. Experience includes transportation datasets in the tens of millions of records, with derived data beyond a hundred million — where the difference between a usable system and an unusable one is query design, not hardware.
Built to be operated, not just delivered
Containerised infrastructure, queues and asynchronous processing, monitoring, and modern authentication. Software that someone has to run at 6am on a Monday is designed differently from software that only has to demo.
Correctness where money is involved
Costing and settlement logic written as pure, testable functions — separate from screens, transport, and authentication — because logic that can only be tested through a browser never actually is.
