They just specialized into various cloud providers and services instead. Nobody runs major sites on bare metal Unix anymore, and a lot of vendors automated the basic sys admin tasks such that you're using managing their dashboards and configurations instead of the OS itself or some GNU tool.
But there's still plenty of backend, devops, SRE, cloud whatevers, etc. if that's what you want to do. Probably you'll be working for a infra provider rather than a business itself, like the old days, though.
