  • Remain informed of new technical and technological developments to be able to apply these developments on the project whenever relevant and share project developments with peers (TDs on other projects and in other working units);
  • Help plan the work in collaboration with the person who oversees planning based on the scope of each task and the impact of the working unit to establish a compromise between quality objectives and delivery constraints (time, costs, resources, etc.);
  • Follow up on the tasks of associate TDs (if applicable) to assess the progress of the deliverables and coach TDs to ensure that their careers progress;
  • Contribute to external tools selection (engine, plug-in, E-confluence, etc.) to ensure that working units’ needs are considered by assessing existing tools and helping to design and test new tools whenever necessary;
  • Driving the optimization and debugging to fix the issues raised in his field of expertise;
  • Carry out all other related tasks.
