Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJoseph Henry is a pragmatic founding engineer and Member of Technical Staff with 11 years building networking and security products from the ground up, currently driving cross-functional work at ZeroTier. He thrives on ill-defined, high-risk problems—designing protocol-level features like physical link multi-pathing and integrating FIPS-grade cryptography (NIST P-384) while also shipping user-facing interfaces. His experience spans research, systems-level engineering, customer deep-dives, and technical sales, and he mentors junior engineers to scale technical capability. Joseph pairs a mathematician’s rigor with a maker’s curiosity—outside work he explores art that blends light and bits, applying physical-world constraints to software design.
