Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMike Ensing is a Senior Application Security Engineer with 11 years of hands-on experience combining software development and offensive security to harden applications and infrastructure. He excels at manual vulnerability discovery, reverse engineering, and exploit development, and has built low-cost hardware tools and SDR-based systems for real-world network testing. Mike has driven security programs at Leviathan and now The Trade Desk, and previously integrated static analysis, SSO, and secure backend patterns into production Java services. Comfortable coding in Java, C/C++, Python, and Bash, he blends pragmatic engineering with red-team creativity—often practicing on HackTheBox, CTFs, and crackmes—to find non-obvious abuse cases and threat vectors. Based in Seattle with a BS in Computer Science from the University of Michigan, he’s equally at home automating assessments as he is developing proof-of-concept exploits and tooling.
