You need to consider base rates to be able to claim that there aren’t enough EA software developers. Hiring good developers is hard, but hiring good anyone is hard. The question is, is it disproportionately hard relative to hiring for other jobs, or to software engineer hiring for non-EA companies?
Also relevant: I’ve looked at the job postings for some of the orgs you listed, and they generally want several years of experience. EAs are disproportionately in college or just out of college, which makes it harder to find experienced candidates.
