Linux admin career goal?

I recently installed my very first Linux distribution, PopOS and have been having a wonderful time with it. I have no knowledge about anything coding or Linux related. My question is, is there a Linux based job I could get that would require less overall knowledge/ skills than a Linux admin? Or should I focus on learning to code/program while working on system admin skills?

I would do both to open more doors. I am trying to learn how to use Oracle's virtualbox to upload ubuntu to use the programming stack LAMP.
