This blog will help you with the resources and some tips on how to prepare for it
Linux Administration
Linux Administration plays a vital role in the SRE position by providing the foundational expertise needed to manage and optimize complex server environments. SREs rely on Linux skills for incident response, performance optimization, security, automation, scalability, and effective collaboration within DevOps teams. Proficiency in Linux administration is essential for maintaining reliable and high-performing systems in the SRE role.

There are many topics involved in this process. From cloud to open source tools. But, to get started, you can watch some videos in the following playlist Youtube-Kunal-Kushwaha-Devops-Bootcamp
Scripting
Scripting is a crucial skill in the Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) role, enabling SREs to automate tasks, streamline processes, and enhance system reliability. With scripting languages like Python, Bash, or PowerShell, SREs can create custom tools, automate routine operations, deploy configurations consistently, and respond swiftly to incidents.
