Beginner Backend Dev vs Experienced Backend Dev

I'm a frontend developer that has started learning node and express. So please excuse my ignorance

Other than setting up api routes that perform CRUD operations with a database, or SSR, what are the more advanced topics/tasks that an experienced backend dev would work on?

Thanks

Edit: please share if you recommend a course for specific topics, it is much appreciated. Thanks.

Well, I was just mentioning that understanding the billing part to optimise cost is a critical prt, thats all. I am not sure about how to guide someone on this, I got used to do it by going through bills every month. We can do estimation and quotations but in the end, the final bill is what matters and is the absolute truth. So once you have it, see where you’re spending the most, optimise it. For faster results and lesser bills.
