Hello, oberdorf.tech

Why this site exists — Lustre, credibility, and breaking things on purpose.

metastorageintro

This is the public home base for Justin Oberdorf — Lustre / HPC storage by trade, systems tinkerer by default, security researcher when something smells wrong.

What you'll find here

  • Work & experience — strategic accounts, Exascaler / Lustre, field reality
  • Projects — from filesystem experiments to MSP tooling and research PoCs
  • Security writeups — hobby lane, real disclosures
  • Interests — Type-R, Funwheel, printers, drones (when the batteries cooperate)

Why a personal site

LinkedIn is a résumé. GitHub is a lab. Packet Storm is a paper trail.

A personal domain is where those threads become a single story: I keep large storage systems running for AI and HPC customers — and I understand how infrastructure fails because I've broken my share of it.

More posts soon: storage war stories, tooling notes, and whatever breaks next.
