Nicholas Luedtke is a cleared cyber security leader with 10+ years of experience building vulnerability intelligence and exploitation programs for enterprise and national-security contexts. Currently a Technical Lead in Google’s Threat Intelligence Group, he previously architected and automated an end-to-end vulnerability intelligence platform at Mandiant, integrating generative AI to accelerate analyst workflows. He combines deep technical skills—vulnerability analysis, exploit review, automation and platform design—with operational insight from a background in Army all-source intelligence and defense contracting. Nicholas is focused on translating threat actor TTPs into actionable remediation priorities that influence executive and operational decision-making. He’s equally comfortable briefing leadership as he is refactoring collection pipelines and shipping analyst-facing tooling, and he brings a habit of turning manual processes into scalable automation. Based in the DC-Baltimore area, he pairs a political science and computer science education with practical experience across private sector and military intelligence.
