Ray Felch joined the Black Hills Information Security (BHIS) team in June 2019. Originally hired as an intern, Ray is now a Hardware Researcher responsible for working on embedded hardware, hardware labs, wireless research, and technical blogs. After retirement as an electronic engineer, embedded programmer, and firmware developer, his son, Mike Felch, recommended coming to work with him at BHIS. Ray most values the positive support he receives and the freedom to research and create wireless circuitry for educational purposes and vulnerability assessments. Outside of work, he enjoys playing guitar, amateur radio, outdoor activities, reading, and spending time with family.
Mike Felch first joined Black Hills Information Security (BHIS) in August 2017. As a Security Researcher, his role is to identify and weaponize security vulnerabilities in emerging technologies. Mike started his career in 1997 as a Linux administrator, which led to numerous offensive security and engineering roles. He chose BHIS because of the value placed on team culture, and he enjoys being part of a company that has the opportunity to make a difference in major organizations worldwide. Outside of work, Mike operates a family ranch where he raises cattle, chickens, and goats.
