 Lyft has confirmed the recruitment of developers in Ukraine. They do not plan to launch the service here


In January 2021, the American car-sharing company Lyft (Uber's main competitor in the US) began looking for technical specialists in Kiev. However, this does not mean the launch of the service in Ukraine. Now in Ukraine the company is only recruiting developers.

Whether the company plans to launch its service in Ukraine or open an R&D office, Lyft replied as follows:

    “Lyft is always working to hire and retain the best developers around the world, and Ukraine is known for its top talent. In the near future, Lyft has no plans to launch car sharing in Ukraine, ”the company said.

At the moment, the Lyft service officially operates only in two countries - the United States and Canada. There is no information about entering other markets yet. In 2019, the company held an IPO.

Recall that in 2015, Uber began looking for people in its Kiev office, and in the summer of 2016 it officially launched in Ukraine.

Update: According to NV, Lyft has already registered a legal entity in Ukraine. The company is called Lift Ukraine LLC and is headed by Vitaly Zadorozhny. The main activity is computer programming.
