Youssef Mikhail is a Senior Security Automation Engineer based in Toronto with a decade of hands-on experience building secure, automated infrastructure and developer tooling across finance and high-tech sectors. He has accelerated high-impact projects at Neuralink and now drives security automation at RBC after progressive security roles at Sun Life, combining low-level programming skills in C++, Java, and Python with reverse-engineering and program analysis. Comfortable in fast-paced, cross-disciplinary environments, he has shipped backend and CI/CD systems on AWS and Kubernetes and contributed to graphics tooling and open-source projects during his time at AMD. A former student leader and competitive programmer, he brings strong people skills and a habit of experimenting with low-level software internals—an approach that often surfaces subtle vulnerabilities and practical hardening opportunities.
