What determines whether a person can be in charge of a certain development position

game-dev-story

Obviously Writers, Designers, and Sound Engineers can be the lead in their respective fields, but sometimes I can have a Sound Engineer take the lead on graphics. Sometimes I can have Hacker A perform any job while Hacker B can only perform two. What determines who you assign to each development position?

What their current job is isn't the criteria. It's whether they have any job ranking in writer/designer/sound engineer that matters.
