I think Michael Bolton was the only engineer, at one point he says something like "they better not fire us software guys", the main character was in finance or something, whoever cares about TPS reports and I'm not sure if Samirs was mentioned. Apart from the ability to hack the system they're generic office drones and their job titles aren't really important. I think with trends like cubical farms, open plan offices and hotdesking software development companies lag behind other industries.

Peter's job self-given job description: "I sit in a cubicle and I update bank software for the 2000 switch. You see, they wrote all this bank software and to save space, they put 98 instead of 1998. So I go through these thousands of lines of code and uh, it doesn't really matter. I, uh, I don't like my job. I don't think I'm gonna go anymore."

  ... and Samir was "one of the best programmers they have" (per Pete). He was the one who wrote the (admittedly buggy) computer virus at the center of the plot.

    No, Michael put the decimal point in the wrong place... I think Samir had the database access...
