Ahmed -

Can you clarify the question - is this a functional manager whose resources are team members on your project and his behavior is impacting your project's success?

If so, I'd suggest meeting with him 1:1 to let him know that there are impacts to your project and to try to understand why he is behaving in a negative manner.

What does mean JD?

I guess "JD" would be "Job Description".
Question is still unclear, are you working as a team member under his supervision or you are the PM and the supervisor is working for you?

Fire his A... :)

Joking after a long and tiring day.

Understand why and if there is a good reason deal with it and fix the situation. If not good reason, just a bad performer, maybe you need to have a one-on-one and maybe even a soft warning

Nothing works according to a job description, anymore. You should have defined the roles and responsibilities for that person, or that person's position, for your project. Review these roles and responsibilities with the person.

You would need to audit the job description to ensure that the work performed is still accurate to what is being done. That is up to the HR department to do that.

Having a conversation with the supervisor is a great idea. Perhaps there is something within the scope of the project that doesn't align with the job description, and they are working the scope, not the JD.
