A few years later, he was looking to join a team, to work with people from whom he could learn more. The stars soon aligned: he met Philippe Lazzaroni at a conference and joined Direct Impact Solutions in 2013 as a project manager.<\/p><p>Fran\u00e7ois now helps development teams address technical challenges, creates customized training and defines FileMaker best practices based on the latest advances. \u201cI like being able to say that I\u2019ve solved a complex problem. It\u2019s really satisfying,\u201d he says. This family man puts his problem-solving skills to good use in his hobbies when building Lego block creations with his children\u2014or on his own. \u201cIt allows me to build something. I see a connection with programming. Putting pieces together to build a greater whole\u2026\u201d Cerebral during the day and more manually inclined in the evening and on weekends, Fran\u00e7ois places great importance on work-life balance, which he feels is very well integrated into Direct Impact Solutions\u2019 culture and contributes to his attachment to the company.<\/p><p>Part of his mandate as technical lead involves teaching courses outside the company, notably at UQAM. The opportunity to acquire and transfer knowledge are great motivators for him. \u201cThere\u2019s no training program for FileMaker development. We can offer courses. We\u2019re training a niche workforce.\u201d He believes that young people who specialize in this platform will have better job opportunities due to the high demand.<\/p><p>September 2022, Fran\u00e7ois will make his first in-person presentation at the Conference of Quebec Developers for FileMaker. He will discuss the OData data exchange format, a standard that\u2019s now integrated into the platform. We\u2019re confident he\u2019ll teach his Quebec colleagues as brilliantly as he does our team!<br><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When asked to describe what a technical lead does, Fran\u00e7ois Dub\u00e9, who\u2019s held the position for over three years, answers with a smile: \u201cYou do a lot of things!\u201d It\u2019s a great role for this curious guy who\u2019s always up for learning more about FileMaker and everything computer-related.
