Visualizing Data on a Mesh with Displacement Mapping in R
My personal favorite resource is "R for Data Science" by Hadley Wickham. It covers lots of nice data manipulation and visualization examples, and provides a good introduction to the tidyverse, which is a particular dialect of R that's well-suited for data analysis. It's available for free at:
https://r4ds.hadley.nz/
For more specialized analytical methods there are lots of textbooks out there that provide a deep dive into packages for a specific field (e.g. survival analysis, machine learning, time series), but for general data manipulation and visualization it's hard to beat R4DS.

[Career] Strong Mathematics Background, Limited "Technical" Background
The big skills gap you have is in practical data exploration and transformation, which will be a large part of any data-centric role. As much as people may have distaste for it, there is no avoiding data manipulation as critical foundational enabler of all inferential and predictive modeling work. SQL is the lingua franca here and well worth picking up the basics (joins, window functions, handling dates and times, etc.), plus learning how to implement similar transformations in R and Python. With appropriately transformed data, you then need to be able to visualize it effectively using tools like Tableau or ggplot2 in R. I would not necessarily seek courses or certificates in it but expect to be evaluated on them in technical interview screenings, so self-study accordingly. R for Data Science by Hadley Wickham is a great free resource for these topics for R.
