@Gina as a manager hiring that exact skillset I would suggest that the ability to be productive after (or while) turning to available documentation is the thing I look for most. Fortunately, the documentation is most often free for Infrastructure (Azure, AWS, and GCP all have extensive docs, and free trials for access), many cloud technologies are rebrands of FOSS projects (containers, etc), DevOps is problem solving at scale, #Python and #Rust both have great docs and community resources.
