I am not sure that it has never been implemented in any of the Soyuz rocket add-ons present. However, I hope that some developer may find this useful. Also, any space fan can use the following for her or his reference.
I found this youtube video which contain an almost full pre-launch countdown reporting and exchange of different launching officers. I have decided to translate it and publish with little comments on the meaning and who does what.

Also, here's the list of the officers supervising the launch, with their functions attributed to their call numbers:
Number Id|Officer's duty
1|Launch Officer (or "the Shooter") supervising the launch
5|Supervisor of pre-launch operations before the final countdown
20|Fuelers Team's Officer
30|Guidance System Officer
40|Engine Team's Officer
60|Payload Control Officer
70|Telemetry Officer
