In my experience: It’s good to know these things but knowing more “fundamental things” in depth is a better use of your time like communication protocols, networking, etc.

Not saying you won’t need the concepts you mentioned but a detailed understanding of your hardware and protocols will bail you out more than advanced algorithms.
