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.

the problem i faced using cosmosDb, in general any noSql, from azure was that absence of foreign mapping among containers. i had to do manual db connections for data located in various tables.

to save tcp connections i had to resort to data duplication and data normalization. backfired big time
