I am barely getting any work as a Cloud Developer. How do I showcase my work to potential employers while switching?

Recently I joined an service based MNC in India, and it has been around 8 months. I was hyper excited, and actually left several startups because this MNC, because they told me that they (the MNC) would provide training in AWS (Amazon Web Services). Before that, I was in a different startup, and had no clue of AWS. And I was very excited to learn a cloud , and so, when I got this opportunity, I jumped instantly, and ignored other startups, even when those startups (some of them well-established) were willing to pay more than what this MNC offered. Now, I have the CCP (the base level) AWS certification, and am preparing for Developer Associate level certification. However, it has been 8 months in the MNC, and I barely got any work. I must have worked for only 8 hours in total, in those 8 months. I have been alloted as a developer. Even then I barely get work. I search for Work-Life Balance in a company, but I was not expecting No work. I want to work at least 4-5 hours (assuming that is the effective working hours of a company in general) and learn. Had it been a programming language, I would have filled GitHub with side projects, and even tried LeetCode. But, I want to do LeetCode, along with AWS, as AWS is also something I am very interested in (any cloud will do , but I am into AWS right now). I want to know :- How to stay relevant in AWS ? How to showcase my work to potential employers while trying to switch, on AWS? How to proceed now? #engineering #software #swe #aws #cloud
