# Luke Hansen

> Luke Hansen is the Lincoln, Nebraska founder and CEO of CompanyCam, a jobsite documentation platform born from a recurring problem at his family's White Castle Roofing: crews took valuable photos, but nobody could reliably organize or retrieve them. After working across the roofing business and leading its marketing, Hansen launched CompanyCam in 2015. The company later grew to more than 300 employees and tens of thousands of business customers, raised a Series C led by B Capital in 2025, and acquired contractor-finance startup Beam in 2026. Hansen has also become an angel investor in Driive, another Lincoln startup serving contractors.
