Is my new career becoming obsolete?

27/M - I started off as a network engineer for a service provider in the UK after graduating Uni (usual Cisco/juniper/mpls/bgp relating projects) before being offered a new role which came with a very good pay rise.

Still within a service provider, I’m currently a tech lead overseeing changes on a transmission level. So now I’m basically specialising on a L1/L2 level, things like metro Ethernet/DWDM/fibre etc... however I’ve come to learn that my company may be shifting away from this in favour of Juniper/MPLS entirely.

Did I make a mistake shifting to this new role? Or are these transmission skills still sought after anywhere?
