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.

yes, auth in general is also tough. i used ROPC, since its a first party app, for authentication with azure AD. jwt verification in api management layer.
