On Tuesday, they filed an S-1 with the SEC, and over the last few months, have been posting job listings for a Chief Operations Officer (COO), Chief Technical Officer (CTO), Chief Marketing Officer [...]

On Tuesday, they<a href="http://www.p2plendingnews.com/2009/06/loanio-files-s1-sec-not-dead-yet/"> filed an S-1 with the SEC</a>, and over the last few months, have been posting job listings for a <a href="http://www.startuply.com/Jobs/COO_1140_3.aspx">Chief Operations Officer</a> (COO), <a href="http://www.startuply.com/Jobs/CTO_Senior_Web_Developer_1140_2.aspx">Chief Technical Officer</a> (CTO), <a href="http://jobview.monster.com/getjob.aspx?JobID=81487639&amp;WT.mc_n=FDJD">Chief Marketing Officer</a> (CMO), and <a href="http://www.startuply.com/Jobs/VP_of_Finance_and_Administration_1140_1.aspx">VP Finance</a>.</p>
<p><span id="more-238"></span></p>
<p>The CTO role describes an engineering team that might be offshore. Not a huge stretch for a startup, especially one as cash-strapped as Loanio, but a tough decision for any young company. Other than that, none of the job listings is particularly revealing, especially in comparison with their <a href="http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1465988/000146598809000005/loanios119june09finalforedga.htm">S-1</a> (which has a ton of detail), but it looks like Loanio is trying to put in place a <a href="https://www.loanio.com/pages/aboutus">management team</a> of six before they head out for venture capital. Along with founder and CEO Michael Solomon, they&#8217;ve already got a CFO, so the next hire would be employee number 3.</p>
<p>As described in their S-1, Loanio has been self-funded by Solomon (and possibly other angel investors) from the beginning, incurring over a quarter million dollars in expenses. As a result, all of the job listings state that Loanio is building its management team in anticipation of raising VC funding, and are looking for candidates who &#8220;understand and would be able to delay full salary for 4+ months, if necessary&#8221;. That&#8217;s a tall order in a recession like this one, but if you&#8217;re out of a job, it might just be worth your while.</p>

<p>Loanio is headquartered in Nanuet, New York, a small town about 20 minutes north of New York City. You can <a href="http://seedyroad.com/nanuet/postcards.htm">enjoy a historical and pictorial tour of the town</a> online.</p>
