Verdict
While many technical aspects of data engineering can be automated, the managerial role requires significant interpersonal skills and contextual understanding that AI cannot fully replicate. Over the next 5-10 years, the risk of AI substitution is moderate to high, particularly for technical tasks, but lower for leadership and communication roles.
