As regards the risks of litigation, I’m not a lawyer. But I would have thought that pursuing his software development role through a small, private company, possibly off-the-shelf, or through a contractual link with other developers who already have such a set-up, would be the wisest way to protect the developer personally, not just from the risks of potential patent litigation but also from any other legal threats that may arise. But as I say, I’m no lawyer - and naturally the costs of such a course might well outweigh the benefits to him.
