  Optical driving of materials has emerged as a versatile tool to control their
properties, with photo-induced superconductivity being among the most
fascinating examples. In this work, we show that light or lattice vibrations
coupled to an electronic interband transition naturally give rise to
electron-electron attraction that may be enhanced when the underlying boson is
driven into a non-thermal state. We find this phenomenon to be resonantly
amplified when tuning the boson's frequency close to the energy difference
between the two electronic bands. This result offers a simple microscopic
mechanism for photo-induced superconductivity and provides a recipe for
designing new platforms in which light-induced superconductivity can be
realized. We propose a concrete setup consisting of a graphene-hBN-SrTiO$_3$
heterostructure, for which we estimate a superconducting $T_{\rm c}$ that may
be achieved upon driving the system.
