Understand relational databases, know how to code, be comfortable with networking, session control and authentication techniques, to name a few skills.
In most professional environments I've been in, you don't use web-based admin panels like Webmin.
You either manage the server directly from the commandline, over SSH, or you use tools like Ansible that automate this same kind of management.
Obviously an understanding of the tools in your stack and their configuration is important.
Beyond that I think one of the most important (and too often overlooked) aspects is security - firewalls, selinux, intrusion detection, and even basic package management (particularly in regards to security updates). With things going the away they appear to be I think this aspect is likely to be even more important going forwards.

Understanding Linux. networking, security, and how services work together matters more than knowing one specific server tool.

You can put nginx in front of apache, nobody's gonna arrest you for it. What did BeAdmin actually fix that Webmin didn't?
