I found myself in a similar boat (I'm a software engineer with no college degree).

I did well in school with geometry, algebra, and pre-calculus but I did so by memorizing not by understanding.

A decade later I ended up going through a lot of Khan Academy videos to refresh myself and then diving into discrete math and linear algebra textbooks. It really helped me to finally understand the core mathematical concepts that we use in programming algorithms.
