Summary
Julien Chappuis is an engineering manager based in Zurich with 10+ years steering large, cross-functional teams and programs across Trust & Safety, eCommerce, omnichannel CRM, and digital marketing. Currently leading YouTube Trust & Safety detection efforts at Google, he pairs strategic vision with hands-on technical fluency—regularly diving into machine learning and Python prototypes while managing complex policy and compliance challenges. His background includes leading global digital analytics and in‑housing media transformations at Nestlé and building the Nespresso ecommerce platform that scaled across 37 markets. Comfortable translating between business and engineering, Julien has run TPM and product organizations that shaped regulatory, commerce, and content-moderation programs at scale. He’s curious about people and product management alike, treating organizational design as a lever for technical impact. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic technologist who quietly still “secretly codes” to validate ideas and keep technical credibility.
