The difference in how much maths you need to know is not related to your career and educational path, but more to the type of application you work on, and I think your last paragraph would be better phrased if it focussed on the difference between the type of work, rather than any alleged gap between people. Different careers require different skill sets, that's all.
Speaking personally, after getting a Masters degree in Aeronautics I've been working with databases for 30 years, mostly with data warehousing, and more recently with RoR (business apps). The most mathematical thing I ever had to tackle with a computer (post-University) was to solve quadratic equations using Informatica Powercenter and SQL. #GoodTimes
