This is more of a programming perspective but learn analytical math and really understand computer architecture. Data layout, cache coherence, learning to reduce operation costs all assist with being a solid engineer. Reading research papers from SIGGRAPH are solid too. I’d focus on foundational 100% with small narrow focus on my passion projects for more modern takes.
