Senior🎓
Top SchoolJosh Linwood is a regenerative farmer and experienced software engineer with 12 years of technical experience who is building a diverse market garden (Soma Gardens) while maintaining a strong background in large-scale backend and team leadership. He has driven cross-functional engineering work at companies like Target and Amazon, mentoring engineers, designing epics, and creating libraries and tools that improve codebase maintainability and incident coordination. Earlier roles span data science and NLP research—placing first in the Harvard N-GRID challenge—and product-focused engineering from iFixit to startups where he architected an event-sourced websocket beta for a relationship-focused app. Josh blends systems thinking from software with ecological stewardship, driven by a mission to restore soil and improve wellbeing for marginalized people and other species. He is comfortable switching between hands-on implementation and high-level architecture, and brings an unusual combination of production-grade engineering rigor plus field-scale regenerative practice.
