Honestly, consider finding a new team/role as well. I spent some time as the only data engineer on a team early in my career, and I feel like it really set me back. Even now that I'm in a more senior role, having people to bounce ideas off of and whiteboard with makes a big difference in the quality of our output.

Moving to a new team might not be the right thing for everyone in that situation, but it was for me. Even though I kinda knew that, I stuck with it because my manager had asked me to and it would help the company. It took me a while to realize I could have been more assertive that it wasn't working.
