Ex-Meta:

Try to focus on data modeling design, because every few weeks you have to present a design for review with your team and outside team.

Learn AI skills on building pipelines and how can you leverage. All pipelines are build using AI now.

Learn about social media product more , because most of the time you will be building dashboard for metrics which shows how the product you are working on is performing/health/insights.
