[Fiware-pcc] candidatures for AB

[Juanjo Hierro]

Hi all,

  I had this as one of my importants ToDos despite I haven't been able to answer before ...

  I guess that it is better sending this later than never :-)

  There are two roles for which a replacement of Thomas is requested.    Despite these two roles were covered by Thomas, I rather believe they don't need to be covered by the same person, so I will elaborate on the job description separately:


 *   Role supporting coordination of execution and planning of Project Technical Management activities

This role has to do with supporting me in my role as technical manager of the project regarding overall coordination and planning of technical activities of the project.   Regarding requirements for this position, obviously skills related to management/coordination of large projects are a must and I guess I don't need to elaborate too much here.   However, I would like to enumerate some of the concrete activities that would need to be carried out:

    *   Assisting in follow-up meetings with WPLs (both bilateral and joint ones).   This includes helping in preparing the agenda for these meetings, assisting in elaboration of minutes, follow-up the Action Points (APs) on WPLs that may be derived in order to ensure meeting of the milestones, implementing some of the APs identified in order to achieve a better coordination or solving any barrier that WPLs have identified, etc.
    *   Assisting in overall preparation of General Assembly meetings (agendas, organization of meetings, etc) and meetings with the EC, including review meetings
    *   Coordination of Open Calls, assisting in the different phases of the process
    *   Colaboration on development of templates, guidelines, etc to be followed in developement of activities, typically to be documented through the Project Handbook
    *   Assisting in overall assessment of the quality of deliverables, contents on the wiki and website, etc

I would assume that these activities would mean a dedication of about 50%-70% of the time of one person.

 *   Role as deputy Chief Architect (second seat representing FI-WARE in FI-PPP Architecture Board)

This role has to do with supporting me in my role as Chief Architect.   Regarding requirements for this position, I would mention a number of aspects to be taken into account when nominating a candidate:

    *   Playing the role of deputy of the Chief Architect and second representative of FI-WARE requires a relatively good knowledge about state of the art and relevant standards as well as expertise in technologies relevant to several chapters in FI-WARE, not just one.   At least a rather good knowledge/expertise in three of the chapters and relatively acceptable level of knowledge in another two is required.   It would be nice, despite not a must, that the role is covered by someone who can complement the areas where I lack of a deep knowledge/expertise, particularly Network and Security.
    *   Becoming second representative of FI-WARE in the FI-PPP Architecture Board and playing the role of deputy of the FI-WARE Chief Architect will require 20-30% of the time.
    *   As a second representative of FI-WARE in the FI-PPP Architecture Board, the deputy Chief Architect would need to travel aproximately once every two months for a meeting of two days and then also be attending relevant technical workshops, events as representative of FI-WARE on behalf of the Chief Architect.
    *   Regarding definition of the FI-WARE Testbed and the FI-WARE Open innovation Lab, the role of the deputy of the Chief Architect would require interacting with some FIRE projects and representatives of experimental facilities across Europe, working in the design of a technical solution that will ease integration between the FI-WARE Testbed and those facilities.   Knowledge about FIRE-related projects (or other experimental facilities) as well as some degree of networking with people/organizations responsible of these facilities would be rather relevant.
    *   Personal contacts and networking with EC officers may be nice although not strictly required.

I would say that this position requires 20%-40% of the time of one person

  Hope it helps,

-- Juanjo

Dear Jose,

Process-wise, haven't we agreed that you and/or Juanjo will first send an official 'call' for candidates, specifying the job description, and only then companies will come back with candidates? Or maybe I missed something..

Regards,
Alex
