Yeah, the "small company" aspect is pretty key here. Their requirements tend to be much more modest as they can't really afford to be moving fast and breaking things. So once you have a solid environment stood up, it is unlikely to change meaningfully for a while.
Think a job that requires maintaining a LAMP built in the mid 00s. Once you write scripts to install the product on a VM, get database backups automated, and set up alerting, you're basically done. Every once in a while, you do some security updates on VMs, maybe perform the migration from Ubuntu x.04LTS to x.04LTS once every few years.
