You need to understand Math for sure. Linear Algebra is a MUST. Some probability theory may help understanding.
Start reading books, and working on side projects, post it online, then attending some local meetups. Next step is to aim higher, start following latest arxiv papers, trying to read them, and gradually getting comfortable to implement them. At this stage, you can land a job in the industry if you search really hard.
