This isn't 1985. It takes dozens, maybe hundreds of developers to produce what's inside the ECU in your car. Manufacturers buy in specialist skills represented as a complete ECU. Companies like Continental, Bosch, Denso etc., they provide a boxed service/product to the OEM, which works out much, much cheaper than doing it in-house.
