The next word needs to be conjugated. Be careful, this particular verb is irregular. If you don't already know it, the box in the upper left-hand corner of this page will provide verb conjugations. All you need to do is type in 'poder' and select 'Conjugations' from the menu. The present indicative tense is the first block of conjugations given. Just pick the correct one for the person. Wait! I said there was no subject. So, what person is used with the impersonal construct? The third person. Use the singular form.
The direct object pronoun me appears in the correct place, but it needs to be suffixed to the infinitive encontrar. 'Infinitive' means that it isn't conjugated, so the -ar ending remains untouched. It is the verb poder that needs to be conjugated.

Makes sense now!
