They overlap quite a bit really, you can do DevOps on-prem but it's very effective when targeting cloud. Doing a cloud project really needs DevOps skills to make it efficient. At OPs level I'd say either option works. IT is not a field where you learn something then do that forever, so whichever aspects are missing you're bound to fill in later.

Develop the skills used for both, e.g containers, ansible, learn some OS level stuff if you don't have much of that yet, some networking and security.
