Will Hurd is one I can think of off the top of my head: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Will_Hurd

I had no idea he spoke Urdu and worked undercover in Pakistan o_O

Anyways, it doesn't look like he ever worked in software, despite having majored in CS (?)

The CIA was doing lots of recruiting of CS majors from A&M around that time to fill programmer roles so it’s certainly possible. At a minimum, I figured he qualified as a techie.
