I don't think so, as automotive engineers have nothing to do with hardware, in the sense of 'quinquaillerie', which can also be a hardware shop. I think it refers to the number of people engaged in hardware production/retail, according to employment statistics (SAE) (It can also stand for Service des Affaires Étudiantes, but I think this is unlikely here)
