What career options are there for 30+yr old data science graduate in Japan?

I will be pursuing a bachelor's degree in data science in japanese at one of the unis at a top private uni in the kansai region and will be graduating in 2029. However, I will be in my 30's by the time I graduate. I have passed N1.

I know that to be a data scientist generally speaking you will need at least a master's worldwide. But the job postings that I saw in japanese are all over the place. I have seen a youtube video by a japanese guy that you need a minimum of a master's degree.

If I were to graduate with a bachelor's degree, I will definitely be out of the age range for the 新卒採用.

If I were to pursue a career in tech in japan, what sort of things must I do during my degree to makeup for my age? What sort of careers in tech are available for me after graduating with a bachelor's degree?
