Implementation Manager

Retire the ERP.

Light exists to replace factory-era ERPs with software that feels alive.

Our Smart Financial Platform gives modern, global companies superpowers—automated accounting, real-time reporting, and financial flows that move at the speed of the business.

We build with our customers, ship fast, and obsess over craft.

In a short time, Light has gone from idea to the operating core for leading companies like Lovable, Legora, and Keyshot.

People don’t just use Light—they enjoy it.

We’re an early team defining a new software category.

Think engineers who love debits and credits, designers who care about reconciliation states, and operators who treat finance as a product.

If you’re excited to modernize how the world runs money—one workflow at a time—you’re in the right place.

Backed by world-class investors and advised by industry titans, we’re building category-defining products with the freedom to ship ambitiously and own outcomes.

Come help us make Light the global default for next‑gen finance.
