This episode is sponsored by Resideo.

In this episode, two engineers share how curiosity, empathy, and innovation shape their work creating smart home technologies.

Helen Meza, systems integration lead engineer at Resideo, shares her inspiring path from Peru to the U.S. and discusses how she leads global teams with empathy and adaptability. 

Kyra Neal, mechanical design engineer at Resideo, reflects on how she went from designing 3D printers to designing thermostats and dehumidifiers that make tangible differences in people’s lives — and how curiosity played a role in her STEM career.

In conversation with Larry Guthrie, director of content strategy at SWE, hear Helen’s insights on incorporating cultural awareness into leadership, Kyra’s lessons on finding growth through every challenge, and how Resideo fosters an environment where engineers can make an impact.

2026 TOK Essay Title 2: To what extent do you agree that doubt is central to the pursuit of knowledge? Answer with reference to two areas of knowledge.

This title seems to pick up in the middle of a debate about the nature of knowledge, and how it has shifted over time… particularly with the 21st century focus on STEM, and a scientific approach to knowledge. For me, as an art teacher, the idea that doubt is essential to the pursuit of knowledge is counter-intuitive, even corrosive; how can one create without a measure of belief? I recognized the deep, conflicting roles doubt plays in our two fields. To bridge that ideological gap and truly understand the scientific methodology, I pulled a brilliant Physics teacher away from his formulas and into a necessary conversation.

In honor of National Native American Heritage Month, SWE CEO and Executive Director Karen Horting sits down with Sarah EchoHawk, president and CEO of Advancing Indigenous People in STEM (AISES), to discuss visibility, allyship, and access for Indigenous engineers.

Sarah shares her family’s deep legacy of public service, the role of tribal colleges in reclaiming education, and how Indigenous knowledge systems — from fire science to environmental stewardship — can help solve global challenges.

Plus, hear how employers, educators, and organizations like SWE can strengthen partnerships with AISES to ensure Indigenous voices are included in the future of STEM.

Hur påverkar myten om den ”teknikointresserade” flickan undervisningen och samhällsdebatten? Vi träffar Ulrika Sultan har skrivit en avhanding där hon studerat normer och teknikintresse bland flickor – och visar varför vi måste sluta bygga strategier på gamla föreställningar. Poddagogen bjuder på ett samtal om teknik, kreativitet, identitet och normer i skolan och på fritiden, och inte minst ett samtal om hur vi kan skapa utrymme för alla elevers nyfikenhet på teknik.
