Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSpenser Reinhardt is a technical lead with 12 years of hands-on experience in security research, reverse engineering, OS and compiler architecture, and complex problem solving, currently leading technical work at Cisco Talos Intelligence Group. He combines leadership with deep tinkering—building tools, teaching, writing WinDbg plugins, and creating CTF challenges—while co-founding HoneyApps to keep one foot in product development. A veteran contributor to hacker community events (DEF CON N.O.C.) and open projects, he thrives on rapid prototyping of “why not?” ideas like social media intel scrapers and tooling that improves analyst workflows. Based in Columbia, Maryland, he pairs operational experience from support and NOC roles with research-grade curiosity, making him equally comfortable mentoring teams or diving into low-level reverse engineering.
