Explanation:
....professional guidance of associates and use of technical sources including the practical testing....

I think it means falling back on and utilizing things already known. The constant repetition of the same word (here: fachlich) sounds even sillier in English than it does in German

Asker: I'm not sure how this would work in this context. Neither "the use of professional contribution" nor "the use of professional input" sounds right to me.

Notes to answerer
Asker: You're right, and it is repeated just about 1.3 times per sentence in these job descriptions. Of course, it "helps" that I have to be consistent, so at least it always has to stay as "technical", which makes my life SO much easier ;-)
