First is probably Bujold, specifically her Miles Vorkosigan series.
I think of Vinge more in terms of awesome author than awesome characters, but he does have some pretty impressive characters.
Lee Child has an intelligent good guy and intelligent associates vs. intelligent bad guys. (Not sf.)
You may, however, come to strongly dislike the protagonist later in the series.
Miles? He does some douchebaggy things but then he grows up. It's one of my favorite character arcs.
Haha, no, sorry. I was referring to Child's Jack Reacher, who starts off with a strong moral code and seems to lose track of it around book 12.
