I've recently made 3 years of professional experience as a frontend developer. What should I do now?

I have recently completed my 3rd year of professional experience as a fronend developer. I have been working mainly with react and its libraries in a large corporation so there hasn't been much opportunities to dive into something else during work. On the side I also have experience with Node.js and Express. I've also gained some very beginner CI/CD experience during work.
Things have been going great but lately I feel I have started sitting in the same place. I really want to upgrade my skills and diversify them. I feel like focusing only of Fronend is not a good idea, but I'm clueless on what should I start learning as an additional skills.
My main motivation for this is to upgrade my tech stack for better pay and/or work opportunities but also as something to do in my free time because I love programming.
I'm sure there's at least anyone how has been at the same spot like me, so what would you recommend me to focus on? What skills are currently valued or will become valued in today's job market? I've been thinking into diving into another programming language primarly Java for backend. I've also been interested in mobile app development lately as well and also in CI/CD stuff too.
But what can you recommend me that is the best to focus on given my current situation and experience?

Thanks!

After 3 years of experience as a FE developer, what to focus on now?

Hi all,

I have recently completed my 3rd year of professional experience as a fronend developer.

Здравейте, обмислям смяна на работното място и виждам доста обяви от hedge fund компанията Man Group. Позициите не изглеждат зле, та въпроса ми е някой, който се е пускал на интервюта при тях или работи/е работил при тях да сподели мнение? В нета видях единствено 2-3 коментара, че заплащането е било добро, но до там.
