I did the GCP Data Engineer certificate last year. I was able to ask 25% salary raise the next month and got a job at Google as a consultant this year. Of course, everything else including my experience also mattered, but I believe the certificate played a vital role as well.

P.S: Great tool. Loved it

Augmented analytics is something that the companies are trying these days but I haven't seen any impressive growth and feature in any of the tools yet.

My advice to you would be that if you know that you are not going to like working as a programmer, then don't get into it. To support your passion for languages, try something different like analytics, implementation consultancy, client facing roles like business analysis etc. This will help in building your soft skills, which will eventually help you in other professions as well.

I saw a documentary last year on YouTube about how F1 teams are using data (ML) to make decisions on each aspect of the race. On the last lap, they decide to trust their experience and intuition rather than listening to the ML suggestions, which costs them a couple of positions. Maybe not today, but we are not far away from the time when the F1 drivers stop listening to "humans" ;)
You should have a demo on your website.
BigQuery, Snowflake and Splunk for data analysis.
