Honestly, I don't know. But my belief is that experienced engineers would be needed for their judgement and ability to steer and verify the LLM output. This would be more valuable than the implementation specifics which LLMs are better at (in well bounded problems). Paradoxically, I don't think one develops these skills without deliberate practice (putting in the reps). So I don't think the time you spent learning is totally wasted.
