Are you currently in a situation where you immediately need to find another job? Can you spend a few months learning AWS, Python, etc?

What tools are you using in your current devops position?

What type of jobs are asking math and sorting questions to a devops person? Also maybe find an algorithms book and brush up on those skills.

And maybe spend a few hours a week working on creating some sort of environment on AWS that demonstrates your ability to use the tools that are in-demand. You could probably even have that as a portfolio item to show off during your next interview.

I don't think you need to take a lower-paying job for a few years just to pick up those tools. Going through a couple of books should be all that it takes especially if you're already in a devops position.
