Tech Skills vs AI Skills: A Quality Engineer’s Take on What Matters in 2026

AI is changing the way we build, learn and work - so what does that mean for the skills we develop along the way?


In this episode of She Knows Tech, we sit down with Ena Bhandari to talk about technical foundations, building and working with AI, the rise of agentic workflows, and how tech roles are evolving as AI becomes part of our everyday work.


We also get into how we should be thinking about learning in 2026 and what it means to keep building strong technical capability while embracing the tools changing how we work.


And if there’s one phrase you’ll hear a few times in this episode, it’s “the foundation matters.”


Bonus points if you can count exactly how many.
