Personally i've found engineering / designer types, including myself, often a bit on various adhd/autism like spectrums with tendencies to overwork, hyperfocus and in general "attach themselves very much to some domain", not that this is always a good thing.

I've met many from the managerial class without these traits that seem to have no problem coasting and trancending actual meticulous work because their game is all about personal career management, not the hyperfocus a lot of us here engage in daily.
