non-CS Self study DS&A for tech interviews?

I'm a junior QA/devops right now, with a hard science undergrad degree (so no exposure to data structures and algorithms). Is self studying that stuff and grinding leet code a good use of my time if I want a high TC SWE role? Or would I be better off making projects to show to companies that don't use leetcode style technical interviews?

leetcode to get in, projects & proper courses to actually set up yourself to do well once you have the job
