I have an AWS DevOps Pro cert. The test very much focuses on DevOps using AWS services. If you plan on going DevOps in AWS it is certainly worthwhile in lieu of experience.
However, they are not easy certs and you have to renew every 3 years. Dip your toes in the practitioner cert for a basic understanding of AWS services, the Developer cert to have an idea of how AWS connects services together for development purposes, and the DevOps pro for solutions architecting for DevOps in AWS.
For something less AWS-centric, look into getting Hashicorp Terraform certifications. Lots of IaC uses Terraform and that's a cloud-agnostic tool you should definitely highlight as a skill set if you plan on doing DevOps.
Oh nice I didn’t know terraform did certs
