Summary
Rich Joiner is a senior software engineer with 13 years of experience building program analysis, compiler, and security tooling, now driving a multilanguage static analysis engine at NightVision. He combines production-grade systems work from Synopsys and DARPA research with pragmatic small-business software delivered through his own development company. Since 2021 he’s also co-running Deerhoof Gardens, where he applies data-driven farm management and sustainable-agriculture training to inform resilient, user-centered software design. That cross-domain perspective—treating ecosystems and software as interdependent networks—helps him craft reliable, secure applications and operational tooling. Based in Pittsboro, NC, he pairs advanced CS training from UW–Madison with hands-on entrepreneurship and community-focused farming.
