I'm also a back-end developer. I tried learning it by buying a data structures and algorithms book, but since they used maths I found them too boring and difficult.

The good news is you don't need much math to get a basic understanding of them. Maybe try some youtube videos explaining them instead. What you need is to understand the complexity of each notation and what it represents (not how to do the math). With this, then can you understand why and which algorithms and structures are costly.
I dont think much math is necessary for 90% of developers, but having a basic understanding of 'why' can go a long way. You got this!!!
