An 18-year industry veteran specializing in building and growing high-performing product and engineering teams, Bill Elderton comes to Roostify from Q2, a digital solutions provider for financial services, where he served the past six years as Senior Vice President of Development and Engineering. At Q2, he most recently led the build of its 'Banking as a Service' platform.

Elderton is excited to join Roostify amid a period of advancement in the financial industry. "Driven by the residential real estate surge of 2020, digital transformation in the home lending space has become a key imperative not just for banks, but for the industry as a whole. It has also pushed mortgage to the top of the fintech space, and I am excited to help Roostify build on our existing partnership strategy of integrating safe and scalable tech to simplify the end-to-end home lending process," said Elderton.

Roostify, who recently closed US$32m in their Series C investment round, continues to invest in strengthening the executive team as well as growing the company as a whole. Elderton is the 3rd addition to the executive team in the past few months, following Randy Jones, VP Sales & Business Development, and Roger Fendelman, Chief Compliance Officer.
