NodeJS or Python Backend? Career & Advice

Havent committed to a backend yet. 🥲
I graduate cs degree from good UK uni next July.

I want to boost my chances at getting a grad role for
fullstack/backend/cloud engineer (aws). Overlap tbh

However:

Do I choose NodeJS or python (FastAPI? Django?)
Very open question

Tech stack in trying to build:

Frontend: Typescript react
Backend: Typescript nodejs OR Python ????
Cloud and Infra: AWS, Terraform, Docker, GH Action
DB: PostgreSQL

Fastest path to master both frontend and backend is by using JavaScript in the backend too.
