I worked with Luc on the CanadaBuys web site developed for the Government of Canada by InfoSys Public Services. Luc and I were part of an onshore team of developers, tasked with developing and debugging features for the CanadaBuys web site and associated Tender Management Application.
Luc worked on both the front and back ends of the project, creating merge requests to implement new functionality and correct bugs. On the Front end, Luc provided javascript solutions. On the back end, Luc provided PHP solutions for the Drupal 8, and later, Drupal 9 content management systems used to develop the site.
Luc is an experienced developer and was a positive and impactful member of our team. I enjoyed working with Luc and would recommend him for future projects.
