If we look at biology and medicine, there's both. The NIH requires everyone funded on their training grants to be given instruction in basic bioethics, and at the same time there is a profession of bioethics that is involved in grant review and oversight committees because a lot of cases aren't simple and covered by the basics. Bioethics enters the picture from regulation rather the way independent financial auditing does.

Also even with CS you have this. To use security as the comparable system, everyone involved in an application should be engaged and aware of security as a component and goal. Anyone should feel empowered to raise security concerns. You still have security experts who are more knowledgeable than the average developer who build (or collaborate on) security critical subcomponents and who audit/red-team the system to ensure security.
The same can be true of ethics.
