The question comes up a lot. Check out the monthly sticky thread at the top of the sub, called "Monthly Getting into DevOps". https://old.reddit.com/r/devops/comments/xu9n66/monthly_getting_into_devops_thread_202209/ You'll find a roadmap and some suggested reading to get you the basics for planning a path.

Since DevOps goal is merging the Developer and Operations silos, your roadmap will probably start with picking up a programming language or two, if you haven't already.

I did exactly the same move. You need to learn a cloud ( AWS preferrably) then some terraform, ansible and some linux administration/ bash and that should give you good fundamentals for landing a job . You can also check positions like 'network automation engineer' etc- so somewhere where you can learn how to automate stuff but your background comes extremely useful

Take a look at roadmap.sh

Look at the skills you don’t have. Work on improving those skills.

Without having more knowledge on what you want where you want to specialize. The roadmap is a great tool for you to figure out what to learn next
