Linkedin Top startup for 2022 - Lightrun is a fast-growing and well-funded startup based in Tel Aviv. Lightrun’s revolutionary platform is changing how developers write, debug and understand code. We give developers the power to understand the behavior of their live applications on-demand, in real-time, without ever stopping the running applications which utterly transforms the development experience, supercharging productivity, slashing costs, and making it easier to fix bugs.

With customers varying from Fortune 500 (including F10 companies) to SMEs and SMBs across multiple verticals, Lightrun is growing rapidly.

We’re based in Tel Aviv (already stretching one leg out to the US), very dog-friendly, and absolutely love to see people bring out their best in interviews. We bring the coffee, you bring the thunder! :)
