Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In recent years, it has been reported that a large amount of technical debt in systems hinders Digital Transformation (DX). It is one of the important activities for software development companies to find developers who can contribute to the removal of technical debt. However, it is not easy to determine whether the applicants to be hired can contribute to the removal of technical debt before they join the company. In this study, we analyze the characteristics of developers who contribute to the removal of technical debt in multiple projects, in order to enable the prediction of such developers.
Throughout our empirical study using 28 projects in the Apache Software Foundation, the developers who eliminated technical debt in the Commons-Collections project (ACC) removed technical debt in the other projects. In contrast, developers who removed technical debt in the other projects did not remove technical debt in ACC. For future work, we are planning to predict which developers can remove technical debt by considering the relative project quality between ACC and the other projects.
