My company's VP of engineering does the IT because we've got a simple enough set up with a load balancer and a simple network.
All our "major" infrastructure has been abstracted out to AWS and with that, the entire IT dept that would be based around it.
IT will be always be needed (and abused/devalued) by the large corporations (until they deprecate entire server farms).
For the small-mid range companies, one can run with less and do more.
Also, I'm not in CS. I'm a physicist who does game development.
