I have started my career in backend web development. (NodeJS)

If possible could you help me with what to learn and any resources for that ?

I have just recently accepted a position as Director of Compliance at a Fin-Tech company here in Naples, FL.. My previous 17 YOE were strictly in the Financial industry.

That seems low to me.
