There's a difference between operating the database [SRE type job] vs consuming a database [developer]. They're both very valuable skills, but learning the basics of SQL [i.e. being a consumer] is a no brainer. The skills will serve you well for the rest of your career. It's not something that changes every few years like frontend frameworks do.

This is my favorite learning material for ANY programming related skill ever: https://use-the-index-luke.com/, and it's all about SQL queries.
