So I work in the industry, and am indirectly involved with these analytical reporting tools. I hadnt heard of DAX - I see its an MS thing, but have heard of PowerBI and know many that use it.

I would suggest python is probably the logical language to learn, and using a jupyter notebook to interact with it. Together with that learning about the libraries that are used to sumamrise data into useful information.

I'm not a python person myself, but it seems to be the goto language for analystics, statistics and machine learning.
