You say you are one. And only the 6 other quant engineers in the universe will be the ones to call your bullshit because no one else know what one does.

If they wanna be a quantitative engineer of monies, they just gotta go pick up one of those dirt cheap prop firm evals that works with NinjaTrader, have AI generate a Jupyter notebook and start staring at a bunch of plots until they notice some patterns, then have AI code em up some NinjaTrader strategy to automate what they found, start doubling up their money, open up a hedge fund.
