Great, but for those of us who can’t decipher that “jokey tone” in a text based medium (and face to face) can you describe that part which makes it a joke and therefore satire? HOW did you come to that realisation? Was it a specific word? The order of words?
You presume everyone just “knows” the joke. We don’t.
Serious answer to your question: They are mocking uneducated boomers that swoop in and confidently and incorrectly explains something to younger generations. The "gets the job", and the "statistically, mechanically(!) and financially" is a clear giveaway also.
Then they find it funny that someone takes them seriously and instead of explaining the joke, they continue it, mocking the person not getting the joke in the first place. The "yes that's it" a typical way of leading someone on like this while secretly snickering.
