XAML

Use SfTreeView.NodePopulationMode property as Instant for SfTreeView.

<syncfusion:SfTreeView x:Name="treeView" ChildPropertyName="SubFiles" NodePopulationMode="Instant" ItemTemplateContextType="Node" ItemsSource="{Binding ImageNodeInfo}">
    <syncfusion:SfTreeView.ItemTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <Grid x:Name="grid" RowSpacing="0" >
                <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                    <ColumnDefinition Width="40" />
                    <ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
                </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                <Image Source="{Binding Content.ImageIcon}" VerticalOptions="Center" HorizontalOptions="Center" HeightRequest="35" WidthRequest="35"/>
                <Grid Grid.Column="1" RowSpacing="1" Padding="1,0,0,0" VerticalOptions="Center">
                    <Label LineBreakMode="NoWrap" Text="{Binding Content.ItemName}" VerticalTextAlignment="Center"/>
                </Grid>
            </Grid>
        </DataTemplate>
    </syncfusion:SfTreeView.ItemTemplate>
</syncfusion:SfTreeView>

In the Button.Clicked event, bring any child item using BringIntoView method.

public class Behavior : Behavior<ContentPage>
{
    SfTreeView TreeView;
    Button Button;

    protected override void OnAttachedTo(ContentPage bindable)
    {
        TreeView = bindable.FindByName<SfTreeView>("treeView");
        Button = bindable.FindByName<Button>("button");
        Button.Clicked += Button_Clicked;
        base.OnAttachedTo(bindable);
    }

    private void Button_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        var viewModel = (sender as SfTreeView).BindingContext as FileManagerViewModel;
        var item = viewModel.ImageNodeInfo[3].SubFiles[1];
        TreeView.BringIntoView(item, true, true);
        TreeView.SelectedItem = item;
    }
}
