The real danger, and I'm writing from experience, is that once the engineers 
get the skills and tools to create documents the writers could be let go.
 
In that type of firm, the engineer's customer-facing documents would then be 
reviewed for format and style by the in-house editor, whose main job is the 
CEO's assistant.

A local company listed this as one of the responsibilities in a job ad for a 
technical writer:


"coach engineers to improve their writing skills"


It makes me laugh and cringe in equal measures.
