Hi, I’m Weston Ruter [ˈwɛsˌtn̩ ˈɹuːˌɾɚ]. I’m a Googler working in the web content ecosystem team on content experience. We do a lot of work with AMP and bringing progressive capabilities to WordPress, like PWA. Currently I’m working a plot on the official AMP plugin and the PWA feature plugin. I’m a committer for the WordPress project, I co-lead the 4.9 release, and I’ve been a heavy contributor for the Customizer component.
Before Google I worked at XWP, an engineering agency which works to make the open web more secure, performant, reliable, and accessible.
I live in Portland, Oregon with my wife and two boys. I like running, biking, public transit, linguistics, space exploration, Christian theology, and listening to NPR. Hablo español y me alegraría hablar contigo.
