The certs prove you have the knowledge, so you don't have to boast. I've only got one certificate (AWS generic one), and I underestimated how much you need to study for things like that. I mean that was more of a nice to have, I don't actually have aspirations to go into AWS or the "ops" side of things, I just felt like it was something I needed to know more about.
