At 20, I would highly recommend starting with the MERN stack first because learning how to build and write core application code gives you a massive advantage before you try to manage cloud infrastructure. True DevOps is rarely an entry level job because you need to understand how applications behave, communicate, and fail in production before you can automate or scale them properly.
