Ask HN: Is "systems analyst" still a distinct career?

I was just thinking about an old Simpsons joke where Martin is excited to get the “systems analyst” job for career day. I remember hearing about that job title in school and it was always described as a really good job for technically minded people but was never really clear what they did. And now I never hear about it as a career so I’m curious what happened. Did it evolve something else (system architect, UX)? did it just disappear as software/tech changed? Or is it actually thriving and I’m just in a bubble?
