👋 Hi, I'm Julien Chaperon (aka turtlebrain)

Welcome to my GitHub profile!
Ex-Technical Project Manager & Lead Developer @ Rocscience | Geotechnical Software Developer | Surfer | Satire Enthusiast


🚀 About Me

Born and raised on the paradisiac island of Mauritius, I’m a developer, technical project manager, and curious mind with a passion for numerical modeling, stochastic analysis, and creative problem-solving. I earned my BASc (2017) and MASc (2019) in Civil Engineering at the University of Waterloo, where my research developed new stochastic frameworks for soil-structure interaction.

My professional journey led me to Rocscience (2020–2025), where I contributed to industry-leading geotechnical software (RSPile, and RocSlope2), and led the development and commercial release of RocSlope2 as project manager. Now, I’m focused on personal projects and riding new waves—literally and figuratively.


💻 Technical Skills

  • Numerical Modeling: Finite Element & Finite Difference Methods, Stochastic Analysis (spatial/temporal random processes)
  • Constitutive Modeling: Elasto-plastic & heterogeneous materials
  • Statistics: Inferential & Descriptive Statistics
  • Programming: C# (.NET), C++, Python
  • Software Development: Technical project management, team leadership, product release cycles

🌟 Featured Projects

  • TradingBot: My ongoing personal project—algorithmic trading meets statistical analysis.
  • RocSlope2: 3D slope stability software for rock slopes. Led its inception and development at Rocscience; streamlined workflows for ground-control engineers.
  • StatisticalDescriptionTool: Tools for descriptive statistical analysis.
  • SHEAR_FICTION: Exploring fiction through the lens of mechanics and satire.

🏆 Achievements

  • CANSAIL 1 (2019)
  • Winner, Small C Math Competition (University of Waterloo, 2013)
  • Pixel Prize for Photography (Australian Catholic University, 2011)

🌍 Fun Facts & Interests

  • Surfing: New passion—still a kook! Surfed in Mauritius (Tamarin Bay), Canada (Chesterman Bay, Tofino), and Japan (Aoshima, Miyazaki).
  • Reading: Satires by John Steinbeck, Martin Amis, Philip Roth.
  • Music: From 70s psychedelic/prog rock to jungle and DnB.
  • Photography: Winner of the Pixel Prize.

When not battling edge cases on my projects, I’m getting battered and bruised by 3ft waves!
