According to the last company I worked at, software engineers can do everyone else's jobs when things get behind. PO busy? Work with the customer to get requirements, then write stories and tickets. QA running behind? Developers can do the testing. Need to hire more people and the manager doesn't have time? Have the devs do all the interviews. Need more ops staff? Call it DevOps and put the devs on call.
So clearly software engineers are the smartest people in any organization. No wonder they become CEOs!
