> To be blunt, I have little experience with modern technologies and what I do have is a little old to be relevant. I’ve never had direct interaction with any clouds/cloud technologies and I’ve never had to do significant system design or work on any software at scale. Though I do a good bit of design work on my perpetually unfinished side projects. You only need a month or so to get up-to-date. It's not that you need to be a master of such technologies; if you have the fundamentals (OS, networking, some architectural patterns on mind) it should be fine to apply for such jobs that ask for such tech stack after a month or so of playing around with the tooling on your free time.
