My SIL was married to a black guy (Jamaican) and the two of them set up part of a major bank's internet backbone. there might have been fewer, but there were blacks in the biz in the day as well. My takeaway is that there used to be more small, responsive 'mom and pops' doing this in the day as opposed to monoliths.
I have known a couple of black people in tech here in San Francisco.

There are probably more black tech workers in parts of the country other than California too.
