John Mueller
Since joining Google in 2007, John has worked closely with many teams around Google’s Web-Search, such as with Search Console / Webmaster Tools, Webmaster Central, Sitemaps, and Search Quality. He’s driven by espresso, as well as the desire to help others to make their content easily accessible & useful through search.
Prior to joining Google, John finished his studies of robotics & business administration at the ETH Zurich and built up a software company. When not on the line, he’s sometimes found hacking on the next generation of 3D-printed robot gizmos that will soon take over the world (or help mow the lawn, whichever comes first).
