Isn't capital expenditure usually the company's responsibility? If you wanted to have nothing but opex you would rent all of your equipment and hire contractors - but that would get expensive quick.

Though paying an engineer to learn a new skill is not going to be capex on a financial statement. If it was companies would be more willing to do it.
