Nasa found out about the "turn it off and on" trick to fix bugs and decided not to send a dedicated software engineer :) On a serious note, some of the best programmers I know had education and experience in non-cs disciplines and moved to programming. If a software/network engineer is truly needed onboard, I'm assuming NASA would have selected/trained people with the required skillset even if it is not their primary domain of expertise.
