Just a month ago, on January 20,
we covered the launch of
CommunityLend, a new peer-to-peer lending system in Toronto. The service connects borrowers with good credit to those who would like to lend money, cutting out the middle-men traditionally involved in borrowing to offer better rates on loans through competition and community-building.
Now, co-founder Colin Henderson says, the company has registered users "well into the hundreds," which he notes is encouraging given that rather than looking for as many members as possible, the company is seeking a niche of qualified borrowers and lenders. And that growth has led to the company's need to add a new staff member to bring its full-time contingent to six.
Henderson says CommunityLend is looking for a junior developer to work with their professional outsource developers on the
Ruby on Rails platform. Developers interested in working with best-of-breed Ruby on Rails developers and joining the growing team of finance innovators at CommunityLend should contact Henderson directly at colin@communitylend.com.
