Missions à réaliser

The Indonesian team will be in France during the following periods of 2024:

February 2024: gap analysis of a squad of 10 Indonesian people in France. The goal of this gap analysis is to assess the maturity of a squad for developing a Minimum Viable Product in an agile way.

• Prior alignment with our discipline referent on the action plans.
• Identify current level of the squad (individually and collectively) through questionnaires & exercises, and deduce maturity scale for team.
• Define kata / exercises to assess level of the squad.
• Define a coaching plan for all topics to be addressed based on the gap (software craftsmanship, agile, UX/UI, ...). The plan should be defined during the gap analysis and performed after.
• Fix SMART objectives to assess maturity & skill improvement trends.
• This period will be referred as [GAP] in this document.

April, May, June 2024: Product maturity and solution assessment with the squad in France. The ramp-up of the squad in developing a digital product with agility will be key there.

• Define and conduct katas with the software development team to improve software development principles, practices & mindsets.
• Support on modern clean architecture.
• Guide and provide "on the job" support / coaching on how to develop software with agility, from a user story estimated “READY” to tested “DONE.”

o Animate or support the various workshops associated with user-centric approaches for software solutions:

• User experience design process, approach and methodologies (UX interviews, UX testing, ...).
• Conduct UX activities and help the designer and the MVP team integrate a user-centered approach, to define and design a solution that brings value to users in an MVP context.
• Guide and provide "on the job" support / coaching on design methods applied in an MVP context, from early UX research performed (before starting development) to ideation and research performed (usability testing) at the end of development and design methods applied.

When Indonesian people will not be in France, activities will focus on:

• Preparing the next coaching period materials.
• Participate in discipline training activities to align with latest practices and contribute to improving discipline best practices.
• This period will be referred as [MATERIAL] in this document.

The coaching activities used to evaluate individual and collective levels must combine theoretical courses & practical exercises (e.g. kata/dojo) to learn by practicing concepts. Trainings for the coaching will be defined together with the Head of Learning Path and Project Manager.

Concepts to be evaluated shall be related at least with one of the following pillars:

• Defining a product (e.g. pillars of a digital product, design thinking, framing, MVP).
• Do the right Thing (e.g. lean & product ownership, UX).
• Do the Thing right (e.g. software craftsmanship).
• Working as a squad with agility (e.g. digital culture, agile methods & visual management).
