I'd go for Kubernetes Hands-On - Deploy Microservices to the AWS Cloud on Udemy. It's not as AWS-centric as the title makes it seem, and you can follow and do most of it with something like minikube. I think it's very good at introducing you to the basics with a real (but simple) application deployment.

Chesterwood’s courses on UDEMY is awesome, but only if you are starting out in Kubernetes. For the first time, I understood clearly what I’m putting down in yaml files. It is NOT geared towards Kubernetes Administrators, but I’d highly recommend it if you are ramping up on k8s and are reading this thread on Reddit. Should be a precursor to KHTHW.

You can do a small scale version on your own.
Build a small app. Frontend, Backend, DB.
Dockerize it and deploy it. Maybe on Kubernetes.
Now you wanna do that automatically on change to any part. Use a jenkins script to auto update latest docker image and Argo CD to change the Kubernetes Image automatically. Congrats, now you have a CI/CD pipeline.
Load test your app now. Usually Jmeter to generate load, Prometheus and Grafana to monitor your Kubernetes cluster (CPU Usage, Request per minute etc) . See what's happening, Is you CPU usage through the roof or is your DB slow.
Now you can experiment with Kubernetes stuff - Horizontal Pod Autoscaling based on CPU/Memory requests. Try killing a pod and see what happens. Try downing a node. Stuff like that.
For Docker, I used Docker and Kubernetes Udemy Stephen Grider is an excellent teacher.
For Kubernetes, I would highly recommend this course - Kubernetes Hands On . I went from basically not knowing what Kubernetes is to deploying applications in Kubernetes within a week or two. It's that good. Highly recommend.
If you wanna learn more about how EKS (Managed Kubernetes on AWS) works AWS EKS Masterclass.
DevOps Huge Masterclass - If you want an all in one course. From Git -> Jenkins -> Docker -> Kubernetes -> Terraform -> Ansible.
Don't wanna pay for anything? TechWorld with Nana has some pretty good DevOps stuff.
After that it's all googling.
You (or probably) many of us are not going to be working at the scale that FAANG Engineering blogs mention. Just start small and you'll learn along the way.
These two channels have very interesting videos on the subject of System Design and Scaling. So keep an eye on them and connect the two.
It's very easy to get stuck in tutorial purgatory. So work on side projects and don't just follow the videos.
Hope this helps.
