If an achievement did not appear

The developer FAQ says missed achievements can be obtained after finishing the story. Use the Notebook to revisit the matching task and repeat its optional action. Some actions depend on an earlier scene state, so use the task replay flow when that state is gone; do not erase the full save as a first remedy.

This article covers optional triggers. The ordinary task achievements are tied to completing their named story tasks; You’ve found him! is a separate post-game route with its own reveal.
