It's disingenuous for the article to claim does that ICE engineers are replaced by software engineers.
Now-days if you want to make a fuel efficient engine you have to use software modeling and simulation. Maybe people who are close to retirement age are still hands on but industry have switched to CAD/CAM decades ago and is not going back.
Engineers who are verse in CAD/CAM can switch to designing castings, optimizing cooling and heating, and improve part integration.
As Munro's Mach-E tear-down revealed - there's a lot to be optimized in their latest EV[1]
