Justin Rudio

Software engineer, cloud architect and maker of small apps. This is my actual desk, rebuilt in 3D. Have a look around.

Drag to orbit

The short version

Everything on the desk, as plain text.

Cloud architecture

12+ years building software, 5+ years on Google Cloud. Professional Cloud Architect, Cloud DevOps Engineer, Associate Cloud Engineer and Generative AI Leader.

PotatoDog apps

I build small, private apps under PotatoDog. Local Bill Tracker is on the App Store; StillGud and Atom Whisper are next.

Where ideas get tested

A Minisforum MS-01 runs Proxmox and hosts the k3s control plane in a VM, an X1 Carbon ThinkPad joins as a worker node, and an M1 Mac mini handles one-off jobs. It is where I try things before they cost real cloud money.

Atom Whisper

A voice assistant for older Teslas that runs a small language model on your phone and talks to the car over Bluetooth.

EDM festivals

The Gorge is my favorite festival venue, and I try to make the pilgrimage at least once every few years.

Steam games

Whatever random game catches my eye on Steam.

The gym

Away from the keyboard, you will usually find me at the gym.
